DeepSeek Orders 160,000 Huawei Ascend 950DT Chips Instead of Nvidia H200

DeepSeek announced it placed a $2.56 billion order for 160,000 units of Huawei's Ascend 950DT model, opting not to choose Nvidia's H200 chips.

This move demonstrates the weakening of Nvidia's position in the Chinese market due to US export restrictions.
