Intel doesn’t have enough Core i7/i5/i3 series processors to supply!
Paradoxes of paradox. Intel doesn’t have enough processors to supply! Difficult to believe, right? But it seems even big daddies face supply problems. Reportedly, demand for Intel’s Core family processors is so high that Intel is not able to fill the demand-supply gap.
The main company to blame for increased demand is Acer. It is far too optimistic about its notebook sales and that’s why it has placed huge volume order of Intel Core family processors.
According to industry insiders, Intel is currently giving priority to major clients, and second-tier and smaller notebook players have to wait much longer before receiving supply of the CPUs.
