AMD GPUs Get Price Hike in China with International Increases To Follow

As if GPU prices weren't high enough, thanks to the ongoing RAMpocalypse driving up BOM costs continuously for what seems like the last year, the trend is clear. According to recent reports, it now seems as though AMD GPUs are slated to get even more price hikes in the near future. As reported by VideoCardz, based on a source on Board Channels, AMD has increased GPU vendor pricing by as much as $104 in China. Reportedly, the AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT and RX6500 XT pricing will remain unchanged, but the RX 9070 will get a price hike equivalent to $104, being the steepest price increase on the list, while the RX 9060 XT 8 GB will get the smallest price increase, at $45.
