NVIDIA ordena urgentemente las GPU AI A100 y H100 con TSMC antes de que lleguen las sanciones de EE. UU.

principios de este mes, the US Government FPS para sesiones de juego de hasta American companies from exporting AI-acceleration GPUs to China and Russia, pero estas restricciones no entran en vigor antes de marzo 2023. This gives NVIDIA time to take rush-orders from Chinese companies for its AI-accelerators before the sanctions hit. The company has placed "rush orders" for a large quantity of A100 "Ampere" and H100 "Hopper" chips with TSMC, so they could be delivered to firms in China before March 2023, according to a report by Chinese business news publication UDN. The rush-orders for high-margin products such as AI-GPUs, could come as a shot in the arm for NVIDIA, which is facing a sudden loss in gaming GPU revenues, as those chips are no longer in demand from crypto-currency miners.
