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.

oohh look, excuses to continue increasing price of stuff.
But people in other threads of Nvidia discontinuing the 12GB 3080 loved to justify this kind of scummy behavior with "aktchually there was a real issue, therefore the JUSTIFIED price increase". Damn these dudes just became way too predictable, they do no even pretend anymore, straight forward pulling the Putin excuses are lame arguments.
Global inflation box ... checked!
Lets see how many other of the classic trash excuses they come up with before launch.
They already did: NVIDIA reportedly wants to cut TSMC orders for next-gen RTX 40 GPUs 5nm wafers amid lower demand

These tech companies are really having a hard time coming up with real excuses, to continue to exploit consumers.

Good luck to them selling these overpriced cards to customers that continue to lose jobs to automation while housing, food, utilities, transportation costs are all increasing.

I will not support any more price hikes, no matter how small. If prices increase yet again for the same tier of card, I will buy used or not at all.
