H200 is the previous generation expansion card (PCIe). The current B200 is ~2x in many ways. Note there is no mention of GH200 (integrated GPU-CPU) and all those fancy NVIDIA servers.

OTOH, DeepSeek squeezed well their impaired bandwidth H800 cluster. I hope they get a lot of H200s.

> Trump’s post says that 25% of the chip sales will be paid to the U.S. government as part of the deal.

Isn't this a form of export tariff?
