The world's second-largest graphics card manufacturer, PC Partner Group, warned in its financial report that graphics card costs will continue to rise in the second half of the year, with shortages and price hikes for entry-level products becoming even more pronounced. The financial report revealed a significant decline in AIB graphics card shipments in the first half of the year compared to the second half of last year. Supply is expected to tighten further in the second half of the year, with entry-level graphics cards facing more severe shortages than mid-to-high-end products, driving average selling prices even higher.
