I think that is reasonable, but, either this article is not accurate, or that is not the cause that AMD stated.

From the top of the article:

Increasing CPU demand for servers and data centers, along with depleted inventories, are forcing AMD's hand to jack up the prices once again.

Nothing about a supplier or service provider mentioned. They mention their BS made-up shortages.

along with depleted inventories
