Alloy's new copper cooling plates target next-gen NVIDIA GPUs
Alloy Enterprises just rolled out a fresh cooling solution designed to handle the serious heat from AI data centers.
Their new copper cooling plates target GPUs and other parts that make up about 20% of a server's cooling needs—a big deal as demand ramps up, especially with racks built with the Ultra version of NVIDIA's Rubin chip, expected in 2027, which implies a need for even better ways to stay cool.
Alloy uses stack forging to make seamless copper plates
Instead of old-school methods, Alloy uses stack forging to make seamless copper plates with complex shapes for smoother coolant flow.
The result? These plates boost thermal efficiency by 35% compared to rivals.
While the process costs more than standard machining, it's still cheaper than 3D printing and fits right in with what modern data centers need.
