We have talked extensively about memory shortages, guiding gamers throughout the buildup to the situation, but when it comes to markets influenced by them, well, one of the most influential is, of course, the GPU industry. This isn’t the first time we have seen the consumer GPU industry directly influenced by a so-called technological buildup, as crypto-mining brought a similar situation, but with AI, the dynamics are entirely different.
Gamers are curious about how the AI buildout directly affects consumer GPU supply, given that several elements of the PC supply chain haven’t yet been discussed. We’ll dive deep into the potential reasons and how they are directly influencing manufacturers and AIB partners. More specifically, we have seen several reports in the last few months about both AMD and NVIDIA revising their GPU roadmaps, so we’ll discuss that aspect as well. Overall, after this coverage, consumers should get a clear idea about how the situation is evolving in the GPU segment.
The AI Frenzy Isn’t Gobbling Up DRAM; It’s Making the Client GPU Market Less Attractive For the Likes of AMD/NVIDIA
One significant aspect of the GPU shortage is its association with ongoing memory supply constraints, and while this is an important factor, there is another aspect to discuss as well. With the infrastructure buildout that has accelerated since 2023, there has been a common trend among GPU manufacturers in how their revenue has evolved over the years. And when I…
