Nvidia Delays Launch of New AI Chip in China
The delay, due to integration issues, leads to a drop in Nvidia shares and could impact the company's market share in China.
- Nvidia has delayed the launch of its new AI chip, the H20, in China until the first quarter of 2024 due to issues server manufacturers were having integrating the chip.
- The H20 chip is the most powerful of three new chips designed for use in China to comply with new U.S. export rules.
- The delay in the launch of the H20 chip has led to a drop in Nvidia shares.
- Despite the delay of the H20 chip, the L20 chip is reportedly on track for its planned launch, while the status of the third chip, the L2, remains unclear.
- The delay could impact Nvidia's market share in China, providing an opportunity for local competitors like Huawei.
