Intel will likely increase CPU pricing soon
According to recent Asian reports, Intel is contemplating price hikes for many of its products. Intel Xeon and Intel Core CPUs for desktop PCs, laptops, and servers will soon be offered at greater costs.
Intel would then pass on the additional expenses from the manufacturing chain. Uncertainty remains surrounding the magnitude of price rises. It is anticipated to be in the double digits or high single digits. In some instances, price rises of up to 20% are possible. Intel does not comment publicly on these rumors. The price hikes may take effect in the fall of 2022. High inflation, mainly owing to increased energy prices and supply constraints continue to wreak havoc on the semiconductor sector.
In Europe, the effects of inflation are especially pronounced: As a result of the conflict in Ukraine and the frosty ties with Russia, for instance, the euro is presently worth precisely one US dollar. In addition to Intel, other firms are likely to increase their costs. Both business-to-business and business-to-consumer commerce will be affected.
