We can say that the price stability that has been going on for a long time in the computer hardware market is about to end on the motherboard side. According to industry sources; leading motherboard manufacturers, especially AMD, MSI and Gigabyte, are preparing to increase prices in the near future. However, it is not yet clear when the increases will officially come into effect.

Motherboard prices will officially increase

The stock crisis experienced during the pandemic period had a serious impact on motherboard prices. With the easing of the effects of the pandemic, the supply chain recovered, which allowed prices to gradually decrease. However, this recovery in the sector was short-lived.

There are multiple factors behind the new wave of increases. In addition to the new tax policies implemented in the USA, the significant increase in technological component costs directly affects prices. In particular, new generation features such as high-quality copper cables, PCIe 5.0 data bus, USB4 connection standards and advanced VRM structures have significantly increased production costs.

These developments will be critical for users who want to assemble computers or purchase ready-made systems. Experts advise consumers planning to build a new system to complete their shopping before the price increases. The increases are expected to be reflected not only in the upper segment but also in entry-level motherboard models.

This price change in the sector may be a sign of a general cost increase in computer components in 2025. So what do you think about this? You can easily share your views with us in the comments section below.
