AMD is implementing a price increase across its CPU product lines, including the latest Ryzen 9000-series and older processors, effective December 2, 2025. The move was reported by industry sources who were informed by the company ahead of the change. The price hikes go into effect immediately following the conclusion of Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales events. The specific reasons for the price adjustments have not been officially disclosed by AMD, leading to speculation within the industry about potential factors like increased wafer costs. This change will likely increase the cost of building new PC systems for consumers and could influence purchasing decisions in the near term.
