According to the reports from foreign media, on July 19, Qualcomm, Marvell, Intel and TSMC began to raise chip prices.

Qualcomm and Marvell have informed customers that price increases could begin as early as August, according to Taiwanese media reports. Several chip suppliers, including Intel and TSMC, are also planning to raise prices despite growing concerns about fluctuating demand.

Intel told customers that the company would begin hiking prices in the second half year by 10-20%, as reported yesterday.

The company informed that due to the increasing costs caused by global inflation, the prices of CPU processors, peripheral chips, and other core servers are expected to hike. The price volatility varies by type, with the lowest in a single-digit percentage, and some product prices may increase by up to 20%.

Besides Intel, other chipmakers have also begun to increase their product prices to some extent. Samsung announced it will increase chip prices by 20% in March. TSMC also told customers it will raise prices by a “single-digit” percentage.
