I meant the subject matter can easily cause a political debate, was not referring to you 🙂

My understanding is that most stuff like GPU cards are manufactured in China with a few in Taiwan... but a lot of the components are from South Korea, US, Taiwan and China. But to make things a bit more confusing, US tech firms often invest in Chinese companies (take part ownership) to help with restrictions on what technical information can be passed to them, so they can then manufacture their devices and components cheaply via the Chinese company. So I'm a bit unsure of what exactly will get taxed.
But, I believe most high-tech components such as chips, screens etc. right now are South Korean and Taiwanese, if not US. So probably not an issue.
