It seems as if the chip shortage hasn't really affected the spending habits of the PC gaming market as the latest NPD Group report has confirmed that the total spending on PC gaming hardware and accessories has increased by 25% in 2021 compared to 2020. However, the revenue increase % is not as dramatic as the 2019-2020 increase (62%).

Year-over-year revenue growth in PC gaming hardware and accessory categories was led by desktop computers, notebook computers, and PC microphones, increasing 38%, 29%, and 25%, respectively.
