Foundry TSMC states prices of graphics cards and processors will increase by 9%
PC component prices are returning to normal now that the epidemic and crypto meltdown have passed, but it does not appear that this will be a sure thing in the near future. The cost of graphics cards and processors might increase by up to 9 percent in 2023, according to TSMC.
Graphics cards and processors are anticipated to experience price increases as a result of the current global inflation trend. As a result, TSMC (Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company), the world's largest semiconductor manufacturer, predicts that graphics cards and processors will increase in price by 6 to 9 percent beginning in January 2023.
And this prognosis seems to come at a bad moment, given that the top three chip manufacturers, TSMC, Samsung, and Intel, are working hard to increase chip production in order to fulfill market demand and produce next-generation equipment. However, neither businesses nor consumers are prepared to pay a high price for products, especially those that are unnecessary. In addition, the increase occurs at a time when the economic situation is worsening and the price of essential items is rising.
Despite this concern, the outlook for TSMC remains positive. A report that the business is due to disclose at the conclusion of the second quarter indicates that the Taiwanese powerhouse could sell more chips for the first time than Intel.

TSMC shares dropped in price, because the good days are over. No more mining and covid to increase demand.
And Samsung as announced the start of production of their 3nm GAA process node. Meaning more competition.
Increasing prices might just reduce demand even further.

Indeed. This time there even wasn't an excuse, just a laconic notification that the prices are going to rise.
Us gamers aside, the folks who really should start sweating are the game studios. Their earnings will drop when PC gamers give up and start looking for new hobbies.
These tech companies are really having a hard time coming up with real excuses, to continue to exploit consumers.

How gullible are you
These cards will be sold out day 1 and out of stock for weeks / months. As always...
After what happened last couple of years, Nvidia can release RTX4080 at 1100 EUR starting price and and everyone will think it's deal of the century, everyone will gobble it up. I can already see reviews for 4080 on all hardware sites "Top Pick", "Highly recommended", "Editor's Choice" etc. etc.
You seem completely oblivious to the crypto crash and think same conditions that affected Ampere couple years ago are in place today. They are not. Initial release stocks of RTX 4000 series may be sold out in first couple weeks but there is massive inventory coming that cannot be moved at ridiculous prices.

Foundry TSMC states prices of graphics cards and processors will increase by 9%
They can increase prices but will have extra spare capacity that cannot be met with reduced demand expected over the next year.

There's no real competition for TSMC, they do all major companies chips and have one of the most advanced processes.
Samsung has fabs yes, but they make their own products and have very few reserve for costumers.
Intel is just, Intel: they'll sell as high as they can.
GF was the last competitor and they quit the innovation race essentially creating room for these price increases.
If no one actually cares to compete with TSMC, these prices will only keep going up.
