AMD GPUs and CPUs could be the next victims of the RAM crisis, as industry chatter insists more price hikes are coming

According to industry rumors, AMD's GPU and CPU prices may rise by approximately 10% across its entire chip line in the fourth quarter. This price increase is expected to affect not only AMD's processors and graphics cards but also motherboards, as the company has informed its customers of a 10% price adjustment. TSMC, the manufacturer of most of AMD's chips, has communicated the same price hike to its customers.

While the rumor mill suggests these price hikes could occur as early as next month, it remains unconfirmed. The RAM crisis, which has already led to soaring DDR5 RAM prices, is believed to be a significant contributing factor to the impending price hikes.
