The updated version of the H20 AI-chip will be part of the recent generation NVIDIA artificial intelligence processors based on Blackwell’s architecture.
Nvidia plans to launch a new chip of artificial intelligence for China at a significant lower price than the H20 model banned in April. Making the mass of new items can start in June. Reuters reported this reference to resources.
The new graphic processor (GPU) belongs to the Blackwell line, the last generation of Nvidia AI chips. Its estimated price is $ 6500-8000, which is cheaper than $ 10,000 -12 000 per H20.
Price reduction is explained by less powerful features and simpler labor. The new chip is based on the GPU RTX PRO 6000D server and will use the usual GDDR7 memory instead of the latest HBM (high-bandwidth memory). Also, he will not use the technology of proprietary cowos packaging from the Taiwanese TSMC.
Loss of Nvidia due to penalties in the US
China remains a major market for Nvidia – it costs 13% of the company’s annual income. However, US export restrictions significantly influence the manufacturer’s position: Nvidia sharing in the Chinese market fell from 95% in 2022 to 50% today. The main competitor is the Huawei with its own Ascend 910B chip.
NVIDIA Director General Jensen Juuang said the old hopper architecture models (where H20 is based) will not be adapted to new export policies. As a result of the ban, the company wrote $ 5.5 billion from stocks and refused $ 15 billion potential sales.
Remember, Nvidia announced the start of the construction of the infrastructure for the manufacture of II-Supercompeters Nvidia that was completely in the United States.
Earlier it was reported that Nvidia reported on the record profit.
