During the 2024 SIEPR Economic Summit, NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang acknowledged that the company's next-generation DGX systems, designed for AI and high-performance computing workloads, will require liquid cooling due to their immense power consumption. Huang also hinted that these new systems are set to be released in the near future. The revelation comes as no surprise, given the increasing power of GPUs needed to satisfy AI and machine learning applications. As computational requirements continue to grow, so does the need for more powerful hardware. However, with great power comes great heat generation, necessitating advanced cooling solutions to maintain optimal performance and system stability. Liquid cooling has long been a staple in high-end computing systems, offering superior thermal management compared to traditional air cooling methods.

By implementing liquid cooling in the upcoming DGX systems, NVIDIA aims to push the boundaries of performance while ensuring the hardware remains reliable and efficient. Although Huang did not provide a specific release date for the new DGX systems, his statement suggests that they are on the horizon. Whether the next generation of DGX systems uses the current NVIDIA H200 or the upcoming Blackwell B100 GPU as their primary accelerator, the performance will undoubtedly be delivered. As the AI and high-performance computing landscape continues to evolve, NVIDIA's position continues to strengthen, and liquid-cooled systems will certainly play a crucial role in shaping the future of these industries.

Researchers from Tsinghua University in Beijing have developed FlexRAM, the first fully flexible resistive RAM memory built using liquid metal. The innovative approach suspends droplets of gallium-based liquid metal in a soft biopolymer material. Applying voltage pulses oxidizes or reduces the metal, mimicking neuron polarization. This allows the reversible switching between high and low resistance states corresponding to bit 1s and 0s for data storage. Even when powered off, data persists in the inert liquid for 43,200 seconds (or 12 hours). The current FlexRAM prototype consists of 8 independent 1-bit memory units, storing a total of 1 byte. It has demonstrated over 3,500 write cycles, though further endurance improvements are needed for practical use. Commercial RAM is rated for millions of read/write cycles. The millimeter-scale metal droplets could eventually reach nanometer sizes, dramatically increasing memory density.

FlexRAM represents a breakthrough in circuits and electronics that can freely bend and flex. The researchers envision applications from soft robotics, medical implants, and flexible wearable devices. Compatibility with stretchable substrates unlocks enormous potential for emerging technologies. While still in the early conceptual stages, FlexRAM proves that computing and memory innovations that were once thought impossible or fanciful can become real through relentless scientific creativity. It joins a wave of pioneering flexible electronics research attaining more flexibility than rigid silicon allows. There are still challenges to solve before FlexRAM and liquid electronics can transform computing. But by proving a fluid-state memory device possible, the technology flows toward a radically different future for electronics and computation. Below, you can see the liquid metal droplet that is the FlexRAM breakthrough.

According to @momomo_us, Intel has discontinued its Cryo Cooling Technology as of July 1, 2023, marking the end of one of the tech industry's few sub-ambient cooling options. The technology, which could chill CPUs to 0 degrees Celsius to enhance performance, accompanied Intel's processors from the 10th-generation Comet Lake to the 13th-generation Raptor Lake. Despite its innovative approach to boosting CPU performance, the cooling solution was not widely embraced. The discontinuation comes just before the arrival of the 14th Generation Raptor Lake Refresh, which will not support the Cryo Cooling tech. Intel plans to maintain updates for the existing Cryo Cooling hardware until December 31, 2023.

This specialized cooling method did see some use in products like the Cooler Master MasterLiquid ML360 Sub-Zero and the EKWB EK-QuantumX Delta TEC waterblocks. Interestingly, the technology has managed to work even with non-Intel CPUs, which famous overclocker der8auer managed to get up and running on AMD's Ryzen 9 5950X. Some modifications were in place, but it was possible to do so. The likely reason for shutting down the cryo cooling project is the need for more financial sense to continue to pursue this technology and the effort to keep the cost of R&D down and make funds available for other projects at Intel's laboratories.
