\n China will carry out a further investigation into Nvidia after a preliminary probe found that the US chip giant had violated China\u2019s anti-monopoly law, the Chinese market regulator said Monday.\n <\/p>\n

\n Nvidia makes processors that power artificial intelligence, which both China and the United States believe is crucial for national security.\n <\/p>\n

\n The decision to continue inquiries after the original investigation, launched<\/a> in December, comes as the two countries hold their fourth round of trade talks in Madrid.\n <\/p>\n

\n Nvidia was found to have violated the terms of the regulator\u2019s conditional approval of its acquisition of Israeli chip designer Mellanox Technologies, China\u2019s State Administration for Market Regulation said in a statement<\/a>, without providing further details. China approved the acquisition<\/a> in 2020.\n <\/p>\n

\n Nvidia (NVDA<\/a>) stock was down 2.5% in premarket trading after the announcement.\n <\/p>\n

\n Earlier this year, Nvidia, along with AMD, agreed to pay the US government 15% of their revenues from semiconductor sales to China in exchange for licenses to export their technology there. The deal could help the Trump administration maintain America\u2019s AI dominance while securing a critical trade agreement with China. It could also give the White House billions of dollars to spend as it wishes.\n <\/p>\n

\n The White House in April blocked the export of certain AI chips to China, including Nvidia\u2019s H20 chips and AMD\u2019s MI308 chips. The unprecedented deal with the Trump administration allows the companies to obtain export licenses to restart sales of those chips in China, a US official told CNN.\n <\/p>\n

\n Nvidia released the H20 chip last year as a way to maintain access to the Chinese market \u2014 which made up 13% of the company\u2019s sales in 2024 \u2014 in the face of US export controls imposed by the Biden administration.\n <\/p>\n

\n But the chips are widely believed to have contributed to DeepSeek<\/a>, an advanced Chinese AI model that shook Silicon Valley upon its release earlier this year, raising concerns that China was further ahead on AI than previously understood.\n <\/p>\n
