AMD Warns Partners of 10% Price Hike Ahead of Q4 2026

AMD may raise prices for some of its chips in Q4 2026 as higher wafer costs at TSMC put pressure on the company’s business, according to a report from ChannelGate cited by Wccftech.

The report says AMD notified its partners about a possible 10% price increase. The change could include AMD’s Ryzen CPU lineup because the company relies on TSMC for manufacturing. However, AMD has not confirmed price hikes for its Ryzen CPUs.

The report describes the potential increase as another round of price rises later this year. It links the possibility to increased manufacturing costs at TSMC, while leaving the final effect on specific AMD products uncertain. The available information does not confirm whether every Ryzen model would be affected or when any change would take effect.

For now, the 10% figure applies to the reported partner notification rather than a confirmed retail increase. AMD’s position on Ryzen pricing remains unconfirmed.
