 Elon Musk's liquid-cooled 'Gigafactory' AI data centers get a plug from Supermicro CEO — Tesla and xAI's new supercomputers will have 350,000 Nvidia GPUs, both will be online within months

Elon Musk's Texas Tesla Gigafactory is expanding to contain an AI supercomputer cluster, and Supermicro's CEO is a big fan of the cooling solution.

Charles Liang, founder and CEO of Supermicro, took to X (formerly Twitter) to celebrate Musk's use of Supermicro's liquid cooling technology for both Tesla's new cluster and xAI's similar supercomputer, which is also on the way.

 The Tesla Gigafactory supercomputer cluster, located in Texas, will be powered by over 50,000 NVIDIA AI GPUs and Tesla's proprietary AI hardware. Its primary purpose is to train Tesla's Full Self Driving (FSD) feature for its electric vehicle family 
. The liquid cooling solution provided by Supermicro will help manage the heat generated by the GPUs and ensure efficient operation.
