Could 2027 see the beginning of an end to the PC pricing crisis?
Acer Chairman Jason Chen predicts that PC prices, particularly for lower and mid-tier gaming PCs, may begin to fall in the second half of 2027. This outlook is contingent on a decrease in AI hardware demand and an increase in memory production capacity, which has driven up consumer component prices throughout 2026. However, high-end components like Nvidia's RTX 5090 are expected to remain expensive due to their utility in AI server applications.
