The post Intel Targets Nvidia and AMD With New AI Chip appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Key Takeaways Intel plans to ship its Crescent Island AI GPU in 2026, targeting Nvidia and AMD on cost and power efficiency. The chip uses up to 480GB of cheaper LPDDR5X memory and air cooling, with customer sampling due in the second half of 2026. Bitcoin miners like Terawulf are pivoting to AI compute, tying the chip race directly to crypto’s bottom line. A Cheaper Bet on AI Inference The plan, flagged in a widely shared market update, centers on a data-center graphics processing unit (GPU) called Crescent Island. Unlike the top-end accelerators from Nvidia and AMD that rely on expensive high-bandwidth memory, Intel’s chip is built around lower-cost LPDDR5X memory, supporting up to 480GB, and is designed to run in air-cooled server racks rather than demanding exotic liquid-cooling setups. With its design, Intel is aiming at AI inference (the stage where trained models actually answer queries)
Intel says it will launch a new artificial-intelligence data-center chip this year to challenge Nvidia and AMD, betting that cheaper memory and lower power draw can win over operators building out compute capacity.

The post U.S. AI Chip Export Clampdown Likely to Pressure Nvidia and AMD Shares at Open appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Nvidia (NVDA) and AMD shares are set to face renewed pressure when US markets open Monday. Weekend guidance from the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) extends license rules to advanced AI chips sold to Chinese-owned firms abroad. The Trump administration left a year-long enforcement gap after rescinding the Biden-era AI Diffusion Rule last May. Industry sources say hundreds of thousands of advanced chips slipped through to Chinese-linked buyers abroad. Nvidia (NVDA) and Advanced Micro Devices Inc (AMD) Stock Performance. Source: TradingView Why Monday’s Open Could Get Bumpy Earlier draft rules requiring approval for global AI chip exports sent Nvidia down 1.8% and AMD down 2.2% in prior sessions. A similar but more contained reaction looks possible Monday. The new guidance is enforcement clarification, not a sweeping ban. Existing licensed sales of lower-tier
