Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger spoke on the matter at a conference, stating that "even though I expect the shortage to decrease in the second half [of 2021], it will still take a year or two before the industry is able to fully meet demand." Gelsinger explains that there is still a lot to do before we can solve the problem of the shortage of semiconductors and is very positive about the growth of the PC market.
As for the field of consoles, this data could be result in a probable shortage of PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X at least until 2023 as the problem, according to NVIDIA, will cause delays in the production of GPUs. This is undoubtedly a very difficult situation to manage, and for the moment there is very little we can do to stem the problem.
The current situation is really putting everyone in difficulty: besides Sony and Microsoft, too Nintendo blamed the shortage of semiconductors, without forgetting the case of Final Fantasy XIV, arriving on PlayStation 5, whose popularity has clogged the servers, which cannot be upgraded due to the lack of chips for the data centers. We therefore look forward to more updates on the issue which we hope will arrive as soon as possible. Until then, we advise you to stay tuned to our pages so as not to miss any news.
We remind readers that on Amazon it is still possible to find an Xbox Series S at an affordable price or that, while waiting for a PlayStation 5, you can buy a DualSense.
