This summer, the markets of the developed economies faced with a deficit of graphics cards based on the GPU AMD Fiji, and this caused an increase in retail prices. Now the deficit is over, and many products are available to AMD partners with discounts, as expected in the pre-holiday period. However, according to the site DigiTimes referring to traditional sources, the high demand for some models of expensive graphics cards with NVIDIA GPUs caused their deficit.
The largest manufacturer of graphics cards in the world remains Palit Microsystems, which owns several brands, including Gainward. Together they released this year about eight million cards. In second place is Asustek Computer to 4.6-4.8 ml Sold cards. They are followed by Gigabyte Technology, and MSI, firing 3.2 million Video cards each. In the Chinese market leader remains Colorful.
Compared with last year, the volume of shipments of graphics cards have not changed for most manufacturers, so the rise in prices will enable them to increase revenue without increasing the volume of the issue. The average value of revenue growth of 20%. Moreover, MSI graphics cards will increase the number of units sold by 10%.
