AMD Radeon hit by memory shortage, 10 percent graphics card price hike rumoured

AMD may raise prices for graphics memory used in Radeon graphics cards as component costs climb amid a supply shortage, industry watchers say. Reports cited by overseas media say AMD is considering a roughly 10 percent increase in prices for graphics memory kits for Radeon GPUs as early as July, which could push up consumer prices via add-in-board partners. AMD has not officially confirmed the reports. The market is also watching broader memory price rises across PC hardware.
