On May 25, according to Reuters, American chip giant Nvidia will launch an artificial intelligence (AI) chip based on the Blackwell architecture for the Chinese market, which will be priced significantly lower than the previous H20 chip, and is expected to start mass production as soon as June. According to the report, the AI processor, which uses the latest generation of Blackwell architecture, is expected to cost between $6,500 and $8,000, which is significantly lower than the H20 pricing. A lower selling price usually means that the chip specifications are relatively weak and the manufacturing process is more simplified. This will be the third time that Nvidia has launched a downgraded version of the chip for the Chinese market that meets U.S. regulatory requirements. The U.S. government recently banned Nvidia from selling H20 chips based on the Hopper architecture to China.
