Jensen Huang Confirms NVIDIA to Begin H20 Chip Shipments to China

Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of NVIDIA, confirmed in an interview with China Central Television that the U.S. government has approved export licenses allowing the company to begin deliveries of its H20 chips to the Chinese market. Huang expressed strong optimism, stating he is very pleased and looks forward to shipping the H20 soon, describing the approval as “very, very good news.”

Alongside this announcement, Huang revealed NVIDIA’s plan to launch a new GPU model named RTX Pro, designed specifically for applications in computer graphics, digital twin technologies, and artificial intelligence.

The H20 chip was developed in alignment with U.S. export control regulations and is tailored for the Chinese market. Built on NVIDIA’s Hopper architecture and equipped with CoWoS advanced packaging technology, the H20 is positioned for vertical domain model training and inference, though it does not support training trillion-parameter large models. Its overall performance slightly surpasses that of the 910B chip. The U.S. government had previously prohibited sales of the H20 to China in April.
