The moves reflect Nvidia's push to ensure enough liquid-cooled data centre capacity exists to house its Rubin chips, which ship in liquid-cooled form only, unlike earlier air-cooled Blackwell systems. Cloverleaf is adopting Nvidia's DSX blueprint spec, including DSX Flex for grid-responsive scaling. Separately, Nvidia announced its Groq 3 LPX rack entered full production, and SpaceXAI will deploy Vera CPUs and a Vera Rubin NVL72 system in orbit. Nvidia reports earnings Wednesday, with analysts expecting revenue near $92bn. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.

Yes, Rubin is the first Nvidia chip platform offered in liquid-cooled form only, with no air-cooled option. This follows Blackwell's NVL72 racks, which needed liquid cooling that not every facility could supply. Liquid-cooled racks run denser, heavier and hotter, need larger backup power and coolant distribution units at roughly one per one to three megawatts of compute, and are moving from about 250kW to 600kW per rack starting next year. _daily.dev helps engineers track infrastructure shifts like Rubin's liquid-cooling requirement before they plan a data center build._ ### What is Nvidia's DSX platform for data centers? DSX is a set of blueprints Nvidia introduced last autumn and launched this spring that specify how much power, cooling and space a given amount of compute requires. DSX Flex, part of the spec, lets a data center scale back workloads in response to grid conditions or shift demand onto on-site generation or batteries. Cloverleaf Infrastructure is adopting the DSX spec as part of its deal with Nvidia. _Infrastructure teams weighing power and cooling standards can follow specs like DSX on daily.dev._ ### Which company built and operates OpenAI's Stargate data center in Abilene, Texas? Crusoe built OpenAI's Stargate site in Abilene, Texas, and Oracle runs it. The power for the facility comes from Lancium, a power developer in which Nvidia has invested billions after OpenAI itself explored investing in or acquiring Lancium the previous quarter. _Anyone mapping who actually owns and operates AI data centers can follow these deals on daily.dev._ ## Similar posts on daily.dev - [Nvidia is quietly building a multibillion-dollar behemoth to rival its chips business](https://daily.dev/posts/nvidia-is-quietly-building-a-multibillion-dollar-behemoth-to-rival-its-chips-business-6ux3mweql) · TechCrunch · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [Nvidia's $20B Antitrust Loophole](https://daily.dev/posts/nvidia-s-20b-antitrust-loophole-6jct55e2k) · Hacker News · 1 upvotes · 0 comments - [NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang at Dell Technologies World: “Demand Is Going Parabolic, Utterly Parabolic”](https://daily.dev/posts/nvidia-ceo-jensen-huang-at-dell-technologies-world-demand-is-going-parabolic-utterly-parabolic--rfsisrix8) · NVIDIA · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [Nvidia now holds $99bn in shares of the companies that buy its chips](https://daily.dev/posts/nvidia-now-holds-99bn-in-shares-of-the-companies-that-buy-its-chips-kkigsfsww) · The Next Web · 0 upvotes · 0 comments --- Tags: [#nvidia](https://daily.dev/tags/nvidia), [#ai-infrastructure](https://daily.dev/tags/ai-infrastructure) [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/nvidia-has-bought-into-a-third-land-and-power-company-this-month-1ldym9awa) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"TechArticle","headline":"Nvidia has bought into a third land and power company this month","url":"https://daily.dev/posts/nvidia-has-bought-into-a-third-land-and-power-company-this-month-1ldym9awa","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/nvidia-has-bought-into-a-third-land-and-power-company-this-month-1ldym9awa"},"datePublished":"2026-08-24T15:52:10.012Z","dateModified":"2026-08-24T15:53:10.211Z","description":"Nvidia took a minority stake in Cloverleaf Infrastructure, a company that arranges land and power for data centres, marking its third such investment in quick...","image":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto/v1/posts/f1756e4f6ee339cc46be4fb7cf95817b?_a=AQAEuop","thumbnailUrl":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto/v1/posts/f1756e4f6ee339cc46be4fb7cf95817b?_a=AQAEuop","isAccessibleForFree":true,"articleSection":"The Next Web","inLanguage":"en","publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180}},"author":{"@type":"Organization","name":"The Next Web","logo":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/t_logo,f_auto/v1/logos/tnw","url":"https://daily.dev/sources/tnw"},"commentCount":0,"discussionUrl":"https://daily.dev/posts/nvidia-has-bought-into-a-third-land-and-power-company-this-month-1ldym9awa","interactionStatistic":[{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"LikeAction"},"userInteractionCount":0},{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"CommentAction"},"userInteractionCount":0}],"keywords":"nvidia,ai-infrastructure","timeRequired":"PT6M"} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https://daily.dev"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"The Next Web","item":"https://daily.dev/sources/tnw"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"name":"Nvidia has bought into a third land and power company this month"}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"FAQPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/nvidia-has-bought-into-a-third-land-and-power-company-this-month-1ldym9awa#faq","mainEntity":[{"@type":"Question","name":"Does Nvidia's Rubin chip require liquid cooling?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Yes, Rubin is the first Nvidia chip platform offered in liquid-cooled form only, with no air-cooled option.
