Recent tenders have revealed that China has acquired Nvidia chips, which were previously banned, in Super Micro and Dell servers. This acquisition has raised concerns about potential security risks and implications for the ongoing trade tensions between China and the USA.

The exclusive acquisition of these Nvidia chips by China has come to light through recent tenders, indicating that the country has found a way to obtain these chips despite the ban. The chips were reportedly used in servers manufactured by Super Micro and Dell, two prominent technology companies.

The ban on Nvidia chips was put in place due to security concerns, as these chips are known for their high-performance capabilities and are often used in critical infrastructure and sensitive systems. The fact that China has managed to acquire these chips raises questions about how they were able to bypass the ban and what implications this may have for cybersecurity.

This development comes at a time when trade tensions between China and the USA are already high, with both countries imposing tariffs and restrictions on various goods and technologies. The acquisition of banned Nvidia chips by China is likely to further strain relations between the two countries and could lead to increased scrutiny of technology transfers and exports.

As more details emerge about this exclusive acquisition, experts are closely monitoring the situation to assess the potential risks and implications. It remains to be seen how this revelation will impact the ongoing trade negotiations and cybersecurity efforts between China and the USA.
