NVIDIA unveils 45°C liquid cooling for AI servers, reducing energy and water use

NVIDIA has developed a new liquid-cooling system for its AI servers that operates at 45°C, a significant increase from typical hot tub temperatures and traditional data center cooling methods. This innovation, outlined in the NVIDIA DSX AI factory reference design, aims to drastically reduce energy and water consumption in hyperscale data centers. Meanwhile, a separate review explores thermal management challenges for AI hardware in low-Earth orbit, where radiation is the only heat transfer mode, comparing passive cooling technologies like radiator panels and phase change materials. AI

IMPACT This advancement in cooling technology could significantly reduce the operational costs and environmental impact of large-scale AI data centers.

    Hotter Than a Hot Tub: The 45°C Breakthrough to Cool AI’s Biggest Machines

    Hot tubs sit at about 38 to 40 degrees Celsius, warm enough that most people can only soak for about 15 minutes. NVIDIA’s newest AI servers can run their cooling liquid even hotter — up to 45 degrees Celsius, or 113 degrees Fahrenheit. That higher temperature limit is precisely w…
