China launches anti-monopoly probe into Nvidia amid rising US-China chip tensions
China has initiated an investigation into Nvidia over alleged violations of the country’s anti-monopoly laws, signaling a potential escalation in the ongoing tech and trade tensions between Beijing and Washington, reported Global Times.
The probe, announced by China’s State Administration for Market Regulation (SAMR), aims to assess whether the US chipmaker breached conditions tied to its 2019 acquisition of Israeli chip designer Mellanox Technologies.
