MODERATORS
"The U.S. Congress introduced a bill to enforce location tracking of high-end gaming and AI GPUs in mid-May, with the White House mulling doing the same earlier this month." The fuck
tldr, us government is concerned about their potential uses for AI/machine learning/crypto/military use and we just cant let china have that so nvidia still wants to make money and pumped out an intentionally maimed chip to get around the bans
And yet the guys in Shenzhen can just pop off the tiny memory modules for a 48GB one in 5 minutes. It's all so futile.
Also, most GPUs are assembled in Chinese factories with silicon from Taiwan.
