According to Tom’s Hardware, Elon Musk’s Tesla Gigafactory in Texas is being expanded to accommodate a supercomputer cluster called the Gigafactory of Computing.
The expansion is attracting attention thanks to the super-large fans being built to cater to the liquid cooling system that the billionaire highlighted recently in a post on X.
According to Musk’s estimates, when deployed, the Gigafactory supercomputer will consume 130 MW. After Tesla’s proprietary AI hardware is installed, the growth is expected to reach 500 MW.
The Tesla CEO also announced that the construction of this facility is almost complete and is expected to be ready for deployment in the next few months.
Elon Musk is building not one but two of the world’s largest GPU-powered AI supercomputer clusters, including Gigafactory and xAI. Both are worth billions of dollars.
Earlier, responding on social network X, the billionaire also revealed that his own AI start-up, xAI, is training the 3rd version of the Grok model using a huge number of resources up to 100,000 Nvidia’s H100 GPUs.
The H100 is also one of Nvidia’s most expensive processors, costing around $40,000 each. This means that Grok 3 is being trained with a number of AI chips worth $3-4 billion.
Supermicro will be the partner to provide cooling solutions for both Tesla and xAI supercomputing data centers.
Sharing on X, Charles Liang, founder and CEO of Supermicro, said he and Musk are looking to “lead liquid cooling technology to major AI data centers.”
AI training centers are famous for their high power consumption. As a result, Supermicro hopes to ease this pressure by promoting liquid cooling technology.
The company claims direct liquid cooling can help reduce electricity costs for cooling infrastructure by up to 89% compared to if air-cooled.
