Nvidia has removed information about the RTX 4090, one of the most popular gaming cards among gamers, from its official website in China, raising concerns about supply among local users.
Nvidia has yet to provide a reason for the change. The RTX 4090 gaming card has disappeared from the company’s GeForce RTX 40 series launch website in mainland China, leaving Chinese buyers with only the 4060, 4070, and 4080 to choose from.

Supply of the RTX 4090 has been tight in China due to its performance in graphics processing applications, and there are concerns that it could be recalled after the US updated its export controls last month, setting higher standards for exporting advanced graphics processing units (GPUs) to the Chinese market.
Several of Nvidia's major hardware partners in China — including AsusTek Computer, Micro-Star International, and Colorful Technology — have also pulled the RTX 4090 gaming card from their respective online stores on e-commerce platforms Taobao and JD.com, adding to worries about inventory levels in the country.
However, users can still buy RTX 4090 cards through e-commerce retailers as well as black market distributors, according to SCMP. A merchant on JD.com offered the card for 22,894 yuan on November 20. Many other limited-supply Nvidia GPUs, including the 4090, are also available through unofficial channels.
In its October 2023 export update, the US introduced provisions to mitigate the impact on the consumer market, facilitating some artificial intelligence (AI) chips for individual users.
The RTX 4090 and RTX 6000 also qualify for the exemption. However, both cards are now listed alongside a range of banned data center GPUs, including the Nvidia H100, H800, A100 and A800, according to a document provided to SCMP by an Nvidia distributor.
