AMD CEO: Chip shortage will last until the end of the year
But supply should improve every quarter. AMD CEO Dr. Lisa Su expressed her ideas about this and her hopes for the next months seem more positive.
The availability of high-end components such as the Ryzen 9 5900X / 5950X remains quite weak since the Ryzen 5 and Ryzen 7 are more than the MSRP (suggested price). Compared to its Zen 3 opponents, Intel's 11th-gen Rocket Lake CPUs are considerably cheaper, largely because the business produces its own chips. The situation in the market for graphics cards is also rather terrible, but the price surely began to approach indicated costs.
According to Dr. Su, the situation will vary from segment to segment, but the component deficit is expected to continue until the end of the year. As for 2020, it will depend on market demand and how much manufacturing capacity improves in the coming months. However, it is not all doom and gloom. As we've seen in recent weeks, CPU and GPU supply and prices have quickly returned to normal.
AMD works hard to boost production capacity and anticipates demand met by the year's end. Over the course of the following months, the budget and the upper middle-class Radeon RX 6000 Graphics Card (6700 XT), followed by Ryzen 9, are expected to increase considerably. Navi 21-based high-end goods won't return to their markets. No MSRP till the fourth quarter at any time.
AMD is expected to launch Rembrandt 6nm-based mobile APUs and Warhol desktop processors (Ryzen 5000 XT), as well as 3D V-NAND-based Ryzen processors sometime in early 2022. The latter should retain the socket AM4 and DDR4 memory while the former will take advantage of LPDDR5 memory.

If you look Amazon or E-tailer yes, if you go to real shop the price have fallen, the only problem is aviability for now but REAL price is very close to old MSRP.
Also there is plenty of second hand GPU on market, they have bough at 2000 Euro, original MSRP is 400 Euro they ask 1600... you make offer at 400 or 500 and most will accept as they are limiting the lost due to their stupidity (some even sell more than computer part car, TV set etc...) this mining bubble have done more damage than previous one.
Shortage will last a bit due to the whole factory/supply chain have been impacted so:
-DON'T buy at over high price (and ***k those that still want to milk you, Amazon and other)
-Buy 2nd hand at YOUR price (you have the handle of the pan this time).

The availability of Ryzen 5000 is already normal. The prices are what AMD wanted them to be: Nobody has forgotten how AMD set them to be considerably more expensive than Ryzen 3000, fully on purpose. Intel's unlocked 6- and 8-core CPUs certainly have a significant price edge, and naturally AMD isn't even offering any entry level 5000 series CPUs. However, Intel is offering nothing as a response to the expensive 12-core and very expensive 16-core AMD ones. Of course you can buy the ridiculous i9 with the same eight cores as the i7 if you desperately need to donate money to the poor Intel out of the goodness of your soul. No sane person on Earth still understands why the i9 is not 10-core like in the previous gen. If it was, you could easily view it as a response to the 12-core AMD one.
