The U.S. will allow Nvidia to export its H200 data center accelerators to “approved customers” in China, President Donald Trump announced on Monday.

Several suspects have been apprehended for allegedly violating export control laws regarding the supply of Nvidia H100 and H200 AI chips to China.

Dutch chip manufacturing design firm, ASML, has been accused of selling chip fabrication hardware to a Chinese defence firm tied to the ruling party. Although it claims the technology was old, it has raised concerns over its potential use in developing new quantum technologies, particularly with military applications.

Marvell has confirmed plans to acquire Celestial AI in a deal worth up to $5.5 billion, a figure that immediately places it among the most aggressive acquisitions in the current AI cycle.

Chinese memory vendor Asgard launches 256GB and 192GB DDR5 memory kits for $1,200 and $2,400, respectively.

A pawn shop in Portugal clearly didn’t know the worth of what they had and ended up selling a high-end PC worth at least $2,500 with current market pricing, for just $600 to a lucky buyer. The PC includes flagship components, including two 32 GB sticks of 6000 MT/s DDR5 memory that alone costs almost $700.

The U.S. government is reportedly preparing to let Nvidia ship its H200 accelerators to China, a move that could restore Nvidia’s influence in the Chinese AI market and reinforce CUDA’s dominance, but the question is if Beijing agrees to accept this hardware.

OpenAI and Anthropic claim in a pair of reports released today and earlier in the month that the use of enterprise AI tools increase productivity and corporate ROI. These studies may be damage control to counter those released by MIT and Harvard in August claiming the opposite.

AMD is apparently no longer telling vendors to stop B650 production in favor of B850 (and B840) due to the current component crisis. Skyrocketing DDR5 prices have caused a steep decline in new motherboard sales, which has reportedly influenced the Red Team to continute to make and sell B650 boards for now, helping consumers still select the cheaper option.

Even as U.S. and Chinese lawmakers make it harder for Nvidia to sell its chips to Chinese customers, the alternatives aren’t able to offer a competitive product. With smuggling and obfuscated shipment routing making it possible to get around blocks and barriers, it may be that Nvidia remains the dominant training hardware provider in the region.

A Slovenian security researcher published an analysis of Sipeed’s NanoKVM in Feburary that raises far-reaching concerns about the €30-€60 remote management device.
