Suspected of monopolizing the graphics card industry, Nvidia's French office was raided by competition regulators.

Thanks to CTOnews.com netizens West window past, South China Daniel Wu, Mr. Aviation for the delivery of clues! CTOnews.com, September 29 (Xinhua) French antitrust authorities recently raided a company suspected of engaging in anti-competitive practices in the graphics card industry, which was later identified as Nvidia by the Wall Street Journal.

The French competition authority clarified that such raids did not imply an offence but were part of a thorough investigation into the substance of the case.

Reported that although the agency did not explicitly mention Nvidia, but Nvidia chose not to comment on the matter. This development indicates a growing interest in Nvidia's dominant position in the supply of AI application chips.

CTOnews.com attached a statement by the French competition authority as follows:

Authorized by a free and detention judge, the investigation department of the French Competition Authority raided the premises of a company suspected of committing anti-competitive conduct in the graphics card industry.

Such raids do not presuppose illegal acts, which can be attributed to the companies involved in the alleged acts, which can only be determined by a comprehensive investigation of the merits of the case where appropriate.

The report also said that competitors such as Intel and AMD are trying to compete for the AI chip market, but Nvidia's H100 GPU still maintains a strong position, estimated to occupy more than 80% of the market share.
