From PC Mag: The price of AMD graphics cards is expected to increase by 10% or more next year.
Sources who spoke to Taiwanese publication UDN are the latest insiders to sound the alarm on skyrocketing memory prices, which is having a knock-on effect on GPUs.
The news comes after PowerColor representatives warned of impending price rises by the end of the year, VideoCardz notes. A post on the Chinese Board Channel forum also said AMD is warning about impending price increases, although it hasn't made any announcements.
"The continuous rise in memory prices has led to a sharp increase in graphics card costs," a translated version of the UDN post says. "Industry sources indicate that AMD, the second-largest graphics card manufacturer, has notified its partners of a second price increase across its entire product line. The increase is estimated to be at least 10%."
