Reports warn that only 10% of those orders are fulfillable. Why: For builders planning AI workloads, the key detail is the reported 10% fulfillment cap: a $35 billion order book does not mean 3 million cards will actually ship, so capacity planning and GPU pricing assumptions should not treat this as immediate supply. Malaysian teams buying workstation GPUs or cloud AI capacity should watch allocation and pricing rather than assume cheaper RTX Pro 5500-class compute is coming soon. nvidia gpu-supply ai-infrastructure china-tech
