Overheating problems with Nvidia’s new AI chip
Nvidia's new flagship AI chip "Blackwell" is apparently struggling with overheating problems. According to insiders, the problems occur when the processors are connected together in server cabinets - so-called racks - which are designed for 72 of the chips.
The US company has already asked its suppliers several times to change the design of the racks, "The Information" reported on Sunday, citing Nvidia employees, customers and suppliers involved in solving the problem. In a statement to the Reuters news agency, an Nvidia spokesperson wrote that several engineering operations were normal and expected.
Specialty chips from Nvidia are the main driver of recent breakthroughs in generative artificial intelligence, such as the OpenGPT chatbot from Microsoft partner OpenAI. Nvidia and companies in the industry are hoping that "Blackwell" will provide a further boost. However, there have been delays in the new generation announced in March, which may affect US technology giants such as Meta, Google and Microsoft.
