Graphics card prices jump by up to 20% in China as shops stockpile Nvidia and AMD GPUs

Graphics card prices are surging in China as Nvidia and AMD distributors and retailers raise prices.

Higher GDDR6/GDDR7 and related component costs have pushed some models up as much as 20% in a week, with premiums nearing 60% above MSRP.

Stockpiling and distributor markups may worsen shortages and help spread higher GPU prices into other markets.
