近日，英特尔公司宣布将向中国市场推出专供版Gaudi 3 AI芯片，然而这一特别版芯片的性能表现却引发了广泛关注。据媒体快科技报道，中国特供的Gaudi 3芯片将分为HL-328 OAM兼容夹层卡和HL-388 PCIe加速卡两种型号，分别于6月24日和9月24日上市。尽管这两款新品保留了原版96MB SRAM片上内存和128GB HBM2e高带宽内存，带宽高达3.7TB/s，并配备PCIe 5.0 x16接口和解码标准，但其性能却因美国的AI芯片出口管制而受到显著影响。
根据美国的出口管制政策，AI芯片的综合运算性能（TPP）需低于4800才能出口到中国。因此，英特尔不得不将中国特供版Gaudi 3的16bit性能限制在150 TFLOPS以内，远低于原版的1835 TFLOPS。这意味着，中国用户将无法享受到Gaudi 3芯片的原始性能，性能降幅高达约92%，以满足美国的法规要求。
这一举措无疑对英特尔在中国市场的竞争力产生影响，同时也反映了全球科技领域中日益紧张的贸易和技术管控态势。对于中国企业和研究机构而言，这可能促使他们寻求更多本土化解决方案，以应对国际技术限制带来的挑战。

Title: Intel’s China-Targeted Gaudi 3 AI Chip Suffers Significant Performance Cuts to Comply with US Export Regulations
Recently, Intel announced the launch of a specialized Gaudi 3 AI chip for the Chinese market. However, the performance of this edition has attracted widespread attention. According to TechRapidly, the China-exclusive Gaudi 3 will be available in two models, the HL-328 OAM-compatible mezzanine card and the HL-388 PCIe accelerator card, launching on June 24 and September 24, respectively. While both variants retain the original 96MB SRAM on-chip memory and 128GB HBM2e high-bandwidth memory with a bandwidth of 3.7TB/s, and feature a PCIe 5.0 x16 interface and decoding standards, their performance has been significantly impacted by US AI chip export controls.
Under US export regulations, AI chips cannot be exported to China if their Tensor Processing Performance (TPP) exceeds 4800. As a result, Intel has been forced to limit the 16-bit performance of the China-specific Gaudi 3 to 150 TFLOPS, a stark contrast to the original’s 1835 TFLOPS. This translates to a roughly 92% performance decrease to adhere to American regulatory requirements.
This move undoubtedly affects Intel’s competitiveness in the Chinese market and underscores the escalating tension in global tech trade and technology control measures. For Chinese companies and research institutions, this could prompt a push for more localized solutions to address the challenges posed by international technology restrictions.
