Default Motherboard prices to see second wave of increases in May

Motherboard prices, affected by upstream component shortages caused by the Japan earthquake, are set to rise for the second time this year after mid-April, according to sources from motherboard players.

As the earthquake damaged the facilities of several upstream component makers, as well as the crisis of Japan's nuclear power plants and the power brownout policy, the upstream supply chain is expected to suffer from a serious shortage, causing the downstream IT industry to face rising component prices and affecting their prices in retail channels.

The sources pointed out that several raw materials and components are already seeing price fluctuations and prices should see a more obvious increase starting in April. To reflect the increasing costs, makers are set to raise motherboard prices in May.
