BEIJING, Mar 18, 2011 - (ACN Newswire) - Chinaqualitycrafts.com (http://www.chinaqualitycrafts.com/products/) latest report shows that the PC prices will rise this year because of shortages in some key components.
The analyst from Chinaqualitycrafts.com said that the price of semiconductor components in computers has fallen by 7.8% a year since 2000, but is set to rise 2.8% this year. This is almost entirely attributable to increase 23% in the price of D-Ram memory chips. Those chips are needed in every computer; make up about 10% of a PC's overall cost. The price of flat screen monitors was expected to increase 20% this year because of shortages. Other components in short supply include hard drives and optical disc drives.
The Chinaqualitycrafts.com predicts that the shortages are part of the aftermath of the financial crisis, which led many manufacturers of technological components to delay investment plans. While capacity building resumed late last year, it usually takes at least a year before new factories come on line.
Chinaqualitycrafts.com points out that this problem is particularly acute in the D-Ram industry, which is in the middle of migrating from the second to the third generation of D-Ram chips, called DDR3 chips.
