AMD Ryzen 7 7840U is in short supply, GPD announces delay in delivery of Win Max 2 handset

Thanks to CTOnews.com netizen Alejandro86 for the clue delivery! CTOnews.com October 17 news, the game console company GPD recently updated the Win Max 2 product project page on the Indiegogo platform, saying that the shipment of the game console was delayed due to a supply problem with the Ryzen 7000 mobile processor.

GPD said AMD had delayed the delivery of processors used in Win Max 2, noting that eight-core Ryzen 7 7840U chips were currently in short supply.

GPD said in the announcement that it failed to deliver the second batch of processors on time because AMD violated the terms of the contract, which is also a rare disclosure of the conflict between the supplier and the OEM manufacturer. CTOnews.com attached a picture as follows:

VideoCardz believes that GPD's disclosure of these problems exposed the company's heavy reliance on AMD processors. In addition to Win Max 2, the company also released Win Mini and Win 4 models with Ryzen 7840U and Ryzen 57640U. GPD has no choice but to wait for AMD to supply.
