Context
Notes
- Regulatory timeline: 2025-04 US license requirement (Nvidia $5.5B charge; MI308 also hit); 2025-07-15 US said sales could resume (15% revenue-share arrangement, CNBC); 2025-08 Chinese regulators/CAC told Alibaba, ByteDance, Tencent to pause purchases and customs held shipments; late 2025-early 2026 Nvidia halted H20 production (OFweek 2026-04).
- Successor pricing reports: Reuters 2025-05-24 — China-market Blackwell chip expected at $6,500-8,000; IFP 2025-10-25 — B30A about $22.5k/card (roughly half of B300's ~$53k), >12x H20 performance. As of Aug 2026 B30A export approval status to China remained undecided.
- TrendForce (2025-08) reported Nvidia weighed an up-to-18% H20 price hike to protect margins before sales collapsed.
- H20e / H20 141GB (HBM3e) upgrade variant reported in 2025; pricing not confirmed.
- 8-GPU H20 server prices in China: ~¥1.4M at launch (2024) -> ¥1.1-1.3M (mid/late 2024) -> ~¥1.1M (early 2025) per Guosheng Securities/CLS.
