cnbc.com Dylan Butts 2025-12-18 15:19:03

China is one of Nvidia's largest markets, particularly for data centers, gaming and artificial intelligence applications. Nvidia has denied that its chips have any "backdoors" that would allow anyone to access or control them, after Chinese regulators summoned officials from the company to explain risks associated with its H20 chip. While Nvidia was given assurances by Washington that it would be allowed to resume exports of its made-for-China H20 general processing units, the AI chips have at

Huawei's CloudMatrix 384 could outpace Nvidia in the AI race, study suggests

techspot.com Alfonso Maruccia 2025-12-19 15:32:00

Editor's take: The Trump administration attempted to curb China's ability to advance its computing capabilities through tariffs and other trade restrictions. However, this unprecedented trade war may have instead pushed Beijing to accelerate its efforts in developing powerful new AI systems. As newly appointed US tech czar David Sacks predicted just a month ago, Trump's tariffs appear to be backfiring in spectacular fashion. Chinese tech giant Huawei is reportedly developing a powerful AI syste

NVIDIA is ending support for its GTX 10-, 9- and 7-series GPUs

engadget.com Unknown 2025-12-20 00:31:12

NVIDIA is calling time on its Maxwell, Pascal and Volta GPUs, with one last significant driver release scheduled for October. This means that all graphics cards belonging to the GeForce GTX 7-, 9- and 10-series categories will only receive quarterly security updates beyond the October cutoff, with support ending entirely three years later in 2028. While they’ll still work after that, they won’t be optimized for new games and are more vulnerable to technical exploits. NVIDIA described its 11-yea

If you last updated your gaming PC in late 2016, Nvidia has two pieces of bad news to share with you today. First, it will no longer support the Maxwell, Pascal, or Volta GPU architectures with new Game Ready graphics driver updates after October 2025. That means GeForce GPUs from the GTX 900 and 10-series, including aging but enduringly popular cards like the GeForce GTX 1060, will no longer get optimized driver releases for new games starting this fall.
