By Liam Mo and Fanny Potkin BEIJING/SINGAPORE (Reuters) -Nvidia is developing a new artificial intelligence chip for China based on its latest Blackwell architecture that will be more powerful than the H20 model it is currently allowed to sell there,

Nvidia is apparently putting together a new AI chip meant for sale in China that's half as powerful as its flagship B300 Blackwell GPU. The new chip would be more powerful than the H20 GPUs the company is currently allowed to sell in the country.

Nvidia hopes to deliver samples to Chinese clients for testing as early as next month, although US regulatory approval is not guaranteed.
