Intel is increasing prices on select high-demand processors to offset rising supply chain costs and inventory shortages.
The adjustments primarily affect Xeon server chips used in AI and data center infrastructure. Certain Xeon models will see price increases exceeding $1,000 compared to 2025 recommended levels.
In the consumer market, Core Ultra 7 desktop processors from the Arrow Lake family will rise by $30 to $50.
Intel is targeting specific SKUs with the highest market demand rather than implementing broad price increases across its entire portfolio.
