Northwestern Polytechnical University, on the US Entity List since 2001, bought two Nvidia H200 chips last month for 874,700 yuan ($123,000), according to an October 21 procurement record on its website. The management school bought them from the Chinese supplier Shaanxi Bosuan Network Technology, and the university also rented access to H200 and other Nvidia servers through five contracts. Reuters reviewed 26 Chinese procurement and corporate records and found other universities buying or renting restricted Nvidia chips through domestic suppliers.

Why it matters

Blacklisted Chinese institutions can still obtain H200 chips and rented computing through domestic suppliers, which Reuters says highlights gaps in Washington’s export controls.
