According to the last update by Intel, the 14nm CPU shortage was supposed to be ending at the end of this quarter. Unfortunately, while Intel themselves have stayed quiet about this, their partners have not and from the mouths of major PC OEM execs, this shortage might last a couple more quarters, possibly even longer if they don't sort out the issue in manufacturing the CPUs.

The Intel CPU shortage was originally reported to be over by the end of summer, as we are into fall here, the shortage remains intact. Alex Cho, president of HP's Personal Systems Business, stated to The Register in an interview that the shortages are affecting all sectors of Intel's CPU manufacturing and that all of their products will be affected and not specifically just processors.
