  "account": "Intel is reportedly preparing to raise the prices of its CPUs by up to 10% by next year, according to Digitimes, which has sources within the supply chain. While the specific products targeted for this price increase remain unclear, it is believed that both the mobile and server segments of Intel's blue-chip business may be impacted before the desktop market experiences the effects. Intel is expected to implement the price hike before March 2027, which coincides with the launch of major annual products like Nova Lake for desktops or the upcoming successor to the Panther Lake lineup. Nova Lake desktop CPUs are anticipated to begin mass production in the fourth quarter of 2026 and release in the first quarter of 2027, aligning closely with the expected price hike. This move is not unprecedented for Intel, as its CFO, David Zinsner, previously attributed a 13% year-on-year increase in client revenue to a higher average selling price rather than increased sales volume. Meanwhile, AMD may follow Intel's lead by raising its prices between June and July next year, potentially avoiding any price clash. The extent of AMD's price increase, including whether it will affect its future Venice server CPUs and existing lineups, remains uncertain.",

This price hike will supposedly be spread across both server and client products. News of Intel’s price hike comes by way of Digitimes, which was told by supply chain sources.
