Nvidia is reportedly planning to release a new AI chip tailored specifically for the Chinese market, aiming to navigate around U.S. export restrictions on advanced semiconductor technology. The chip, expected as early as September, will be based on Nvidia’s Blackwell RTX Pro 6000 processor but modified to comply with current regulations. Notably, these China-specific chips will exclude high-bandwidth memory and NVLink, Nvidia’s proprietary high-speed communication interface, which are key features in its more advanced AI chips. This move reflects Nvidia’s determination to maintain its presence and sales in China despite tightening export controls. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang recently indicated a potential impact on the company’s revenue and profit forecasts due to these restrictions, though this new product launch might mitigate some of those effects. Additional details from Nvidia were not provided at the time of reporting.
