The chipmaker has notified its partners of its latest price increase, which affects its entire product lineup. UDN reports that AMD has now issued the notification to its partners and is expected to raise the prices by at least 10%.

Memory prices continue to rise, leading to a significant increase in graphics card costs. 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, with the increase estimated to be at least 10%.

Stand by my sentiment that if you want a GPU, console or any components to build a system...now is the time before it gets worse next year.

I can still see on Newegg the exact GPUs I recommended to a friend sitting at MSRP, cheaper than they were a year ago, and likely cheaper than they will be next year.

Even RAM if you look hard enough for old stock or from less RGB-laden manufacturers like Crucial or Kingston, you can still get something good without your wallet hating you.

Excuse after excuse

First tariffs and now AI

Fuckers need to stop beating around the bush, and just be honest (i.e. "we're greedy bastards, and want to bleed poor people dry")

I'd have more respect for that, than the stupid BS they keep trying to spin.
