Trump approves Nvidia H200 exports to China, with 25% fee attached — report suggests that companies will have to follow strict Beijing rules to import foreign chip, AMD and Intel to benefit from policy shift

The U.S. has approved Nvidia to export its H200 chips to China, with a 25% fee and strict Beijing rules for import. This decision also applies to AMD and Intel. The H200 chip is more powerful than what China can currently import, and Chinese regulators may limit access to it. The move has sparked controversy, with some senators calling it a national security risk. Additionally, a smuggling network has been accused of routing Nvidia parts into China and Hong Kong.
