What nVidia is saying is in order to procure more memory so they can make more GPUs, they will need to pay more for said memory and thus MSRPs will increase as a result.
HP just announced on Thursday night that their prices will be increasing to cover the cost of higher memory. This is a big development as it’s an acknowledgement that high memory prices are the new norm and not temporary or “cyclical”.
China won’t produce competitive lastest gen memory until the 2030s. They are not the markets saviors unless you’re looking for super cheap, low performance Chinese gadgets.
In other words, price fixing, the supposed legal way.
