Will enable Chinese customers to link multiple units together to build high-performance computing clusters

NVIDIA is reportedly working on a new AI chip designed for sale in mainland China, according to The Information.

The chip, currently dubbed the B30, will enable Chinese customers to link multiple units together to build high-performance computing clusters -- something not previously possible with available products.

Major Chinese tech firms including ByteDance, Alibaba, and Tencent have shown interest in the chip. NVIDIA has informed clients it aims to produce over 1 million B30 units this year.

The move comes amid stricter U.S. restrictions on advanced chip exports to China, though current regulations mainly target the capabilities of individual chips rather than multi-chip systems.
