Taiwanese Server Manufacturers Deny Overheating Issues with NVIDIA’s GB200 AI Servers, Claims Production Is On Schedule

Taiwanese server manufacturers have claimed that NVIDIA’s GB200 AI servers have no “overheating” issues and that production is on the right track.

NVIDIA’s GB200 AI Servers Are Faced With Significant Market Uncertainty, As Supply Chain Depicts A Different Situation

Rumors surrounding NVIDIA’s GB200 AI servers witnessing design flaws have been circulating for quite some time now. They initially began back in Q4 2024, when NVIDIA was said to limit the initial shipments due to multiple server issues. Team Green claimed that the problems were resolved, but in recent coverage, we reported how the GB200 flaws have re-emerged, resulting in mainstream tech companies cutting down on orders.

However, a report by Taiwan Economic Daily, citing Taiwanese server manufacturers, claims that these rumors are purely speculative, saying, “How many times will the same rumor happen?”. They claim that production hasn’t seen any influence yet and that the schedule is proceeding as planned, which does refute the general perception being built up against NVIDIA’s GB200 AI servers. Previously, back in November 2024, it was revealed that Team Green’s Blackwell servers were facing a design flaw, with the actual problem lying in TSMC’s chip interconnect.

Customers such as Microsoft, Amazon, and OpenAI are now cutting down on GB200 orders, which shows that the supply chain is generally facing an issue. Microsoft was previously said to deploy over 50,000 GB200 AI cabinets, but this figure is now tremendously reduced. Moreover, companies are now opting for NVIDIA’s older Hopper generation solutions as well, so overall, the reception of Blackwell in the markets is certainly not looking too well, and NVIDIA might face difficulty in selling these cabinets to the industry, given that it fails to solve the persistent issues.

Whether GB200 server flaws will translate into lower revenue for NVIDIA is a question for the future. Still, given how massively AI servers have scaled up in a matter of a few years, it is inevitable that the overall supply chain will face issues. However, seeing how pivotal it is for Team Green to maintain AI dominance, we are anticipating that the GB200 AI server flaws will be resolved quickly, given the economic and technological resources the firm holds right now.
