Looks like the ban will just take effect later The other day it became known that new US sanctions imply, among other things, a ban on the supply of GeForce RTX 4090 video cards to China due to their high performance.

Looks like the ban will just take effect later The other day it became known that new US sanctions imply, among other things, a ban on the supply of GeForce RTX 4090 video cards to China due to their high performance. Yesterday the information was clarified: supplies, as it turned out, are not prohibited, but production within China itself is prohibited. Now new data has appeared. [caption id="attachment_73560" align="aligncenter" width="780"] GeForce RTX 4090[/caption] GeForce RTX 4090 was removed from the list of sanctioned products for China The thing is that the initial information about adding the RTX 4090 to the sanctions list did not come from any third-party sources, but directly from the government website SEC.gov. There, the RTX 4090 was listed along with the A100, A800, H100, H800, L40 and L40S. However, in the current version of the document, after the update, the L40 and RTX 4090 were removed from the list. Against this background, one might think that the US government has changed its mind about the ban on the RTX 4090, but not everything is so simple. According to the Benchlife resource, the ban on the A100, A800, H100, H800, L40, and L40S comes into force immediately from the moment of publication, but the ban on the RTX 4090 and L40 will come into force on November 16. This information was reported to the source by several video card manufacturers at once, and the source speaks specifically about the ban on exports to China, and not just on production.
