How is that even possible ffs didnt the amd and nvidia ceo said pricing will improve in 2022?
Some of us will end up waiting forever for a new gpu.

intel has their own fab
it's not good news for those who want a new ryzen
expensive node,expensive cache design,on top of the already high amd prices
ryzen 5 starting at 350eur ?

From business point of view I reckon covid was one of the best that could happen to chip manufacturers.
Thanks, but no thanks.

Maybe things will change in late 2023 or in 2024 when new fabrication plants begin operations. It's of course also assuming people stop dreaming of easy money by investing in crypto and on the other hand politicians stop accepting dirty money from criminals and force crypto to be either traceable or illegal. Otherwise nothing will change, ever.

20%, 40% it doesn't matter at this point. Those that couldn't do it recently still won't be able to justify it, so keep on bumping up the price. Fortunately, there will come a time when the bubble will burst but by the time that happens there will be a new normal associated with pc's and pc gaming.
Enjoy what you reap AMD, NVIDIA.
They never said who the improvement would benefit!! 🙁

Just another nail in the coffing for us / normal costumer . Never wanted to admit it ... But PC as a hole and PC gaming is fking dead if this continues .

Yes, it's a bad time now if you really need a new GPU...
Only Lisa Su made this prediction because maybe she lives in La La Land, Nvidia CEO warned about this from august last year: H83
It looks like my current rig is going to last forever...

Wars and pandemics always make (most of) the rich even richer. Nothing new there.
As for this - as far as CPUs go, old advice still holds - wait for Zen 4 and Raptor Lake - worst that can happen is you will end up buying Alder Lake at or below its MSRP.
