VRAM prices

Nvidia's expenses for servicing warranty claims related to its GPUs have increased by over 1,000% in one year, reaching nearly 4 million, up from 1 million the previous year. The warranty rate for Nvidia's GPUs rose from 0.1% in 2024 to 0.9% in 2025, indicating that warranty expenses are growing faster than revenue. AMD's warranty claims doubled from 4 million in 2024 to 8 million in 2025, with its warranty claim rate increasing from 0.4% to 0.7%. The report suggests a correlation between rising VRAM prices and warranty claim costs, but it does not clarify the impact of incidents involving melting RTX 5090 cards on warranty rates.
