More suppliers told that there is a shortage

Another suppler has been told that there is a shortage of Intel chips, just as competition between Chipzilla and AMD heats up.

Martin Wong, president and CEO of Compal Electronics, has warned that the ongoing tight supply of Intel's processors is unlikely to ease until the second half of 2019 and will undermine worldwide notebook shipments during the upcoming peak season

Wong noted that so far Intel has not yet given its downstream partners a clear schedule on when the shortages can be resolved.

Intel has said it has been cooperating closely with its partners to manage their extra orders and its supply priority will be given to Xeon and Core series processors including the latest eighth-generation U and Y series.

Digitimes has noted that Acer claimed that the shortages are not only affecting certain individual brands, but the notebook market as a whole. HP has said something similar.
