Samsung Foundry, the manufacturer of the RTX 3000 GPUs, announced a price increase
Samsung Foundry, the South Korean business's semiconductor foundry branch, announced a price increase for chip fabrication, which might affect numerous members of the computer sector, including Nvidia, because this company manufactures the DIEs in the GeForce RTX line 3000.
The reasoning for this increase is to expedite the process of acquiring funding for its new facility in Pyeongtaek, which will make chips at 5nm and 4nm, in order to remain competitive with TSMC and alleviate the industry's present supply shortage.
Given that Samsung may have already signed contracts for a specific price with its customers, this increase may not affect the prices of graphics cards and other components that are already in production; however, if a new contract is required, it will be made with the price updated, and this is where you will see the price increase. Hopefully, the contracts negotiated with Nvidia are long-term.

Basically everything other than being a slave for the neo-landlords so they can go to space is forbidden for the common folks, let alone think about something so mundane like having any sort of entertainment.
We truly live in a dystopian nightmare where you just live to work and die like any other chicken in a chick farm.

Isn't Nvidia going to switch to a different workflow next year? After all, it was Samsung with its 8nm chips at the start that could not saturate the market with video cards in the required volume.o_O

The rumors that have been posted so far are that Nvidia will use TSMC's 5nm for RTX4000 series Lovelace.
I'd say the same applies for AMD and it's 7000 series cards.
