[SOLVED] Why is the 2200g more expensive than the 3200g?

[starwarsman]

Well, I'm planning a building a system now, and was going to use the 2200g, as it was $85. Now, it's $125... , this Kinda ruins my plans as I don't have an idea how it increased by $40 dollars when everything else stayed steady, anybody know when this will go back down?

Component price is defined by supply and demand. If there is excess supply with low demand, prices drop. If there is short supply with high demand, prices increase.

For the 2200G, my best bet is that it's EOL, meaning that AMD isn't producing any new 2200G APUs. That leads to diminishing supply and increase in price. Either that or the store from where you want to buy that has run it's 2200G stock low, increasing the price in that specific store.
