Graphics card – new US restrictions on China

Nvidia and AMD have been ordered to limit sales of high-performance graphics cards in China in a bid to curb the country’s AI development potential.

The world’s two largest graphics card makers, Nvidia and AMD, recently announced that they must obtain a new license from the US government for future shipments to China.

For Nvidia, the new US directive applies to two products, including the A100 and H100, which are high-performance graphics processors used in businesses. At ADD, the limit is for MI250 production.
