Nvidia applies to the US government for permission to supply B30 chips to the Chinese market

716
Nvidia has submitted an export application to the US government for its B30 chip to China. The chip's peak performance is only 80% of that of a standard Blackwell GPU. The US government's stance on this export application is a key variable. Previously, US President Trump publicly stated that he would consider approving Blackwell chips exported to China if their performance was at least 30% lower than Nvidia's top-tier products.
