Nvidia to Launch Cheaper Blackwell AI Chip for China After U.S. Export Curbs, Sources Say
- Nvidia plans to launch a lower-priced Blackwell-architecture AI GPU for China as early as June 2025, aiming to comply with US export controls.
- This launch follows US export curbs that banned Nvidia’s high-end H20 GPU in April and tightened regulations targeting Huawei's semiconductor use.
- The new GPU, based on the RTX Pro 6000D, will use conventional GDDR7 memory and avoid advanced packaging and higher bandwidth to meet export limits.
- Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang reported a fall in China market share from 95% to 50%, with $5.5 billion in inventory written off and $15 billion in lost sales.
- This development signifies a shift in US tech policy emphasizing AI export controls that challenge Nvidia’s China business and reflect deeper US-China tech tensions.
