Hon Hai Technology Group (鴻海科技集團) yesterday showcased its latest liquid-cooled server racks at Nvidia Corp’s developers’ conference in San Jose, California, with the products aimed at helping customers build artificial intelligence (AI) data centers.
The racks are developed by Hon Hai subsidiary Ingrasys Technology Inc (鴻佰科技) and support Nvidia’s new GB200 flagship chip, Hon Hai said in a statement.
To fuel a new wave of generative AI applications, Ingrasys is leveraging the Nvidia GB200 NVL72, a next-generation AI liquid-cooled rack solution, Hon Hai said.

“Our collaboration with Nvidia helps us deliver the latest accelerated computing technologies to our customers so they can build AI-powered data centers to suit a wide range of applications,” Ingrasys president Benjamin Ting (丁肇邦) said.
Complementing Ingrasys’ rack solution is an advanced liquid-cooling technology, which Hon Hai has been working on for at least five years to address heat management issues for server or data center operators.
Liquid cooling and high-speed switch manufacturing are keys to enhancing graphics processing unit performance, as they help improve the performance of AI servers and optimize power consumption, eventually reducing operational costs for customers, Hon Hai chairman Young Liu (劉揚偉) said last week.
Wiwynn Corp (緯穎), a supplier of cloud infrastructure for data centers, also displayed its latest AI server racks based on the Nvidia GB200 NVL72 system, along with its rack-level liquid-cooling management system, at the developers conference.
The company would continue collaborating with Nvidia to develop optimized and sustainable solutions for data centers in the generative AI era, Wiwynn chief executive officer Sunlai Chang (張順來) said in a separate statement.
Intel Corp chief executive officer Lip-Bu Tan (陳立武) is expected to meet with Taiwanese suppliers next month in conjunction with the opening of the Computex Taipei trade show, supply chain sources said on Monday. The visit, the first for Tan to Taiwan since assuming his new post last month, would be aimed at enhancing Intel’s ties with suppliers in Taiwan as he attempts to help turn around the struggling US chipmaker, the sources said. Tan is to hold a banquet to celebrate Intel’s 40-year presence in Taiwan before Computex opens on May 20 and invite dozens of Taiwanese suppliers to exchange views
Application-specific integrated circuit designer Faraday Technology Corp (智原) yesterday said that although revenue this quarter would decline 30 percent from last quarter, it retained its full-year forecast of revenue growth of 100 percent. The company attributed the quarterly drop to a slowdown in customers’ production of chips using Faraday’s advanced packaging technology. The company is still confident about its revenue growth this year, given its strong “design-win” — or the projects it won to help customers design their chips, Faraday president Steve Wang (王國雍) told an online earnings conference. “The design-win this year is better than we expected. We believe we will win
Chizuko Kimura has become the first female sushi chef in the world to win a Michelin star, fulfilling a promise she made to her dying husband to continue his legacy. The 54-year-old Japanese chef regained the Michelin star her late husband, Shunei Kimura, won three years ago for their Sushi Shunei restaurant in Paris. For Shunei Kimura, the star was a dream come true. However, the joy was short-lived. He died from cancer just three months later in June 2022. He was 65. The following year, the restaurant in the heart of Montmartre lost its star rating. Chizuko Kimura insisted that the new star is still down
While China’s leaders use their economic and political might to fight US President Donald Trump’s trade war “to the end,” its army of social media soldiers are embarking on a more humorous campaign online. Trump’s tariff blitz has seen Washington and Beijing impose eye-watering duties on imports from the other, fanning a standoff between the economic superpowers that has sparked global recession fears and sent markets into a tailspin. Trump says his policy is a response to years of being “ripped off” by other countries and aims to bring manufacturing to the US, forcing companies to employ US workers. However, China’s online warriors
