据界面新闻报道，全球知名图形处理器制造商英伟达已开始接受其针对中国市场推出的“特供版”AI芯片H20的预订。该芯片将提供计算卡和搭载8张H20计算卡的服务器两种形态。据经销商透露，配置8张H20计算卡的服务器的拿货价格超过150万元人民币，这一价格在市场上引起了不小的争议。
一些经销商对高昂的价格持保留态度，认为其可能存在“虚高”现象，因此在决定是否进货方面犹豫不决。据内部消息，H20计算卡的价格并非固定不变，会根据市场情况进行一定范围内的波动。目前，英伟达更倾向于销售整机服务器系统，而非单独的计算卡。
在性能方面，英伟达的H20芯片被评估为H100芯片性能的六分之一。尽管性能有所降低，但价格并未显著下调，导致其性价比在市场中并不突出。这一情况使得H20芯片在经销商和潜在客户中引发了关于性价比和定价策略的讨论。
英伟达此举旨在满足中国市场特定的需求，但其定价策略是否能被中国市场接受，仍有待观察。随着预订的开启，市场的反馈将成为决定H20芯片未来销售走势的关键因素。

News Title: “NVIDIA Launches China-Exclusive H20 Chip: Reduced Performance, Pricing Sparks Debate Among Dealers”
Keywords: NVIDIA, H20 Chip, Exclusive Edition
News Content:
NVIDIA has started taking pre-orders for its China-exclusive AI chip, the H20, tailored for the Chinese market, sparking market discussions, according to Jiemian News. The chip will be available in two forms: a compute card and a server system equipped with eight H20 compute cards. Dealers have disclosed that the server system with eight H20 cards carries a wholesale price tag exceeding 1.5 million RMB, a figure that has ignited considerable controversy.
Some dealers are cautious about the high price, suspecting it might be “overinflated,” leading to indecision on whether to stock the product. Internal sources suggest that the pricing of the H20 compute cards is subject to fluctuations within a certain range based on market conditions. Currently, NVIDIA seems to be more focused on selling complete server systems rather than standalone compute cards.
In terms of performance, the H20 chip is assessed to deliver only one-sixth the performance of the H100 chip. Despite the reduced capabilities, the pricing has not seen a substantial decrease, resulting in unremarkable value for money in the market. This situation has fueled discussions among dealers and potential clients regarding the chip’s cost-effectiveness and pricing strategy.
NVIDIA’s move aims to cater to specific demands in the Chinese market, but whether its pricing approach will resonate with Chinese consumers remains to be seen. As pre-orders commence, market feedback will be a crucial factor in determining the future sales trajectory of the H20 chip.
