AMD is reportedly planning a broad graphics-card price increase of roughly 10 % due to global memory supply constraints. With AI demand pushing up memory costs and production bottlenecks emerging, the GPU market faces a tougher environment for holiday deals—and consumers may need to act sooner to avoid a new higher ...
I love that the AI circle jerk is finding creative ways to make life more expensive. Id be willing to bet the price increase won’t be shared by the AI industry.

I’m not trying to be conspiratorial. I’m assuming the dollar amount and number of GPUs promised in these deals is fixed at this point. AI is also the cause of the price increase so regular consumers enjoy a price increase while tech giants race to kill jobs, burn resources, and degrade the communities they’re building these data centers in.
