Not just GPUs. I needed a new laptop for work, and prices definitely going up there too.

Yeah and also not just PC/PC components either. Anything that's electronic, uses copper, uses a PCB, all of it's being sucked up by AI and driving prices of everything up.

I mean you're right but for the wrong reasons lol. A laptop contains a gpu, too still. But other components are up also, especially ram and storage.

Integrated graphics is not the same as a dedicated GPU.

You're technically correct, but my integrated graphics don't exactly rival a dedicated GPU..
