Support us Nvidia downgraded RTX 5090 to RTX 5090D V2 for the Chinese market. Photo: Nvidia Chinese online gamers and hobbyist artificial intelligence (AI) developers have been dealt a setback as Beijing banned the import of Nvidia’s GeForce RTX 5090D V2, a graphics card specifically engineered for the Chinese market to comply with United States export rules, dealing another blow to the country’s technology community already caught in escalating chip-war tensions. The RTX 5090D V2 was added to Beijing’s list of banned commodities during last week’s summit between US President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping, according to a Financial Times report. Built on Nvidia’s Blackwell architecture, the chip had been cleared for sale in the Chinese market last August. Beijing’s ban adds to broader pressure on Nvidia in China, where the government has been urging local technology firms to prioritize domestic chips over Nvidia’s H200 and H20 AI offerings. Analysts say the H200 alone represents more than $14 billion in potential annual revenue for the US chipmaker.
