Nvidia warns of constrained supply of gaming GPUs, potentially signaling higher prices and shortages to come — ‘we do believe for a couple of quarters it is going to be very tight’

The chief executive of Nvidia warned that the supply of gaming graphics cards will be tight in the first half of the company’s fiscal year, and it has limited visibility for the second half of the year. Given the short supply of gaming graphics cards for desktops and gaming GPUs for laptops, expect gaming hardware to come at elevated prices.

 ”As much as we would love to have more supply, we do believe for a couple of quarters it is going to be very tight,” said Jensen Huang, CEO of Nvidia, during the company’s earnings call with financial analysts and investors. “If things improve by the end of the year, there is an opportunity to think about what that is from a year-over-year growth, but it is still too early for us to know at this time. We will get back to you as soon as we can.”
