Lately, no matter what the product is, it feels like a word ‘missing’, the motherboard is no exception, and all kinds of cost increases have followed.
According to the news, the time comes to mid-January. The supply of motherboards from ASUS and Gigabyte is indeed very tight. In particular, mainstream models such as B460 and H410 have been out of stock to the extreme. Some models can even be delivered. Grab it in 1 second.
The main reason is that the production speed of the upstream OEM is slow, and the warehouse is empty immediately after the arrival of the goods, which is not enough.
Currently, the general agent in each region directly grabs the goods, no longer chooses at all, and regardless of the matching and bundling methods, they will take them as long as they are available.
Out of stock, the price will naturally increase, from top to bottom. For example, Gigabyte motherboards are said to have implemented the second price increase in January this week, involving a wider range of models.
Among them, the individual models of the Z490 series increased by 30 yuan, the entire B460 series increased by 10 yuan, and the entire H410 series increased by 5 yuan. The special price of the Xiaodiao series was canceled, and the support price was reduced by half. Other models remain unchanged for the time being.
ASUS motherboards have not made any further statement, but as early as January, ASUS publicly announced that motherboards and graphics cards would increase prices across the board, and graphics cards have begun the second round of price increases in January.
Among them, RTX 30 series generally rose 150-400 yuan, the GTX 1660S series rose 80-100 yuan, the GTX 1660 series rose 40 yuan, the GTX 1650 series rose 30 yuan, low-end series, AMD graphics cards temporarily unchanged.
Additionally, the colorful motherboards were also leaked to two consecutive cost increases in January, and the second round was launched in the middle of the second round, involving the A68, A320, H81, H310, H410, and B460 series, with an increase of 5-15 yuan.
