AMD is following the lead of Nvidia in creating a new AI chip for the Chinese market that complies with Washington’s export controls. The Radeon AI PRO R9700 is designed specifically for local AI inference and other AI workloads, and is also scalable for multi-GPU setups and is expected to arrive by the third quarter of 2025, according to DigiTimes.
Meanwhile, Nvidia remains on track to release the Nvidia B20. Although it’s based on the latest Blackwell architecture, its compute and memory dies have been downgraded to conform to the limitations the White House has placed on AI chip exports to China.
