The US Trade Representative (USTR) recommended to the White House that it maintain tariffs on GPUs, motherboards, and PC cases made in China. This recommendation was issued as "Billing Code 3390-F3" [PDF]. These tariffs will add a 25% duty on the aforementioned Chinese products. And while you may think that you’re not impacted by the news, you're wrong! The import tax applies to all China-made GPUs and motherboards.
The tariffs, along with others were first proposed under former U.S President Trump's term back in 2020. But implementation of these taxes has been delayed by the previous Trump and current administration of U.S President Biden. This has happened several times, including in January of this year. However, it looks like these Chinese-made products will finally get higher taxes, especially with the USTR recommendation.
