Budget GPUs have long been the last hope for gamers on a tight budget. However, the market situation is changing: according to PC Partner, a serious supply shortage of such devices is expected by the second half of 2026.
Future Shortage
The issue is systemic and affects specifically the segment of affordable graphics cards. This means that users planning to buy an affordable solution for gaming or work in the next 18–24 months may face a shortage of products on store shelves.
It is important to note that this is a forecast from suppliers and distributors (PC Partner), not confirmed official data from chip manufacturers or specific models. Exact dates when the shortage will begin and its scale remain unknown.
