Gigabyte recently increased prices on several graphics cards in China, perhaps showing the early effects of trade tensions. The company raised costs for four different GPU models, including NVIDIA's RTX 5090D, RTX 4060 series, and AMD's RX 9070 lineup.

Price jumps range from 50 RMB for the RTX 4060 Ti to 500 RMB for the RTX 5090D models. The RX 9070 cards saw middle-range increases of 200 RMB each. These changes represent about 3-4% higher prices compared to March levels.

The company hasn't officially explained the increases. Market watchers believe supply chain problems or recent tariff announcements might be causing these adjustments. Actual store prices might differ from these manufacturer-suggested prices, depending on local availability.

Some good news arrived today when reports showed Trump's new tariffs exempt computer parts and smartphones. This suggests that most computer hardware should avoid major price increases for the time being. However, ongoing political tensions make future pricing hard to predict as policies could change quickly.
