AMD CEO Expects Chip Shortages to Improve Mid-2022 - Dismas - 10-03-2021
While the prices for a 5950X aren't nearly as bad now, AMD's CEO predicts chip shortages are expected to continue until about mid-2022.
If you've upgraded within the past couple of years and you've seen the roadmaps, it's definitely worth the wait.
Quote:The global chip shortage will become less severe in the second half of 2022, AMD CEO Lisa Su said on Monday, though she warned that the first half of the year will be “likely tight.”
“We’ve always gone through cycles of ups and downs, where demand has exceeded supply, or vice versa,” Su said at the Code Conference in Beverly Hills, California. “This time, it’s different.”
“It might take, you know, 18 to 24 months to put on a new plant, and in some cases even longer than that,” she said. “These investments were started perhaps a year ago.”
“The pandemic has just taken demand to a new level,” Su said.
