Things are going to get worse.
My company manufacturers a lot of printed circuit board assemblies.
Just about every IC, resistor, capacitor, etc. is now on "allocation". What this means is that distributors like Avnet, Digikey, etc. are either really low on inventory or do not have any inventory. The manufacturers of these parts cannot meet current demand.
Jelly Bean parts like 5% or 1% resistors used to be stock items...now many are running 10 week lead time. Heck, I have 1 precision resistor used in a power supply that is running 48 weeks!
Of course, you can pay 2X or 3X the cost to be "allocated" parts sooner.
So - this means we will start to see price increases and/or stock-outs in other PC products (motherboards, etc.)
