On May 25, according to Singapore's "Lianhe Zaobao" website, citing Reuters, the American chip giant Nvidia will reportedly launch an artificial intelligence (AI) chip based on the Blackwell architecture for the Chinese market, which will be significantly lower than the previous H20 chip, and is expected to start mass production as soon as June. According to the report, this AI processor with the latest generation of Blackwell architecture is expected to cost between $6,500 and $8,000, which is significantly lower than the price of H20. A lower selling price usually means that the chip specifications are relatively weak and the manufacturing process is more simplified. According to the report, this will be the third time that Nvidia has launched a downgraded version of the chip for the Chinese market that meets the regulatory requirements of the United States. The U.S. government recently banned Nvidia from selling H20 chips based on the Hopper architecture to China. According to people familiar with the matter, Nvidia had considered developing another downgraded version of the H20 for the Chinese market, but Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang previously admitted that the Hopper architecture used in the H20 could no longer be modified under the current U.S. export restrictions.
