| Captain_Yuri said: Intel Price Hike To Affect Upcoming CPUs, Motherboard Chipsets & Other Components In Q4, Up To 20% Increase The pricing battle will be interesting. If it ends up being 7700x about the same price as 13600k, then I think it will be an easy Ryzen recommendation for most people in terms of gaming.

Intel wants to get the same money they made before despite the lower sales, that's why they're raising the prices.
And I'd say that the price increase is already happening. In several stores the Alder Lake processors are more expensive now than when they launched, at least both the 12600K and the 12700K.
