Intel's SuperFluid Cooling Tech 'Possibly Suitable For Nvidia's GB300' Chips, Says Expert Amid INTC's Efforts To Secure Commitments For Foundry Services

Intel Corp. (NASDAQ:INTC) SuperFluid cooling tech could be useful for Nvidia Corp.’s (NASDAQ:NVDA) Blackwell Ultra GB300 chips, which were launched during its GTC conference.

What Happened: Team Blue’s SuperFluid, launched in 2023, is positioned to capture a significant share of the burgeoning cooling market for Nvidia’s upcoming AI servers.

According to Beth Kindig, a tech analyst at I/O Fund, Intel’s SuperFluid liquid cooling technology has reportedly undergone verification testing demonstrating its ability to manage thermal dissipation of up to 1,500 watts.

This performance benchmark suggests that SuperFluid could be a viable cooling solution for Nvidia’s GB300 AI processor, which is anticipated to consume up to 1,400 watts of power.

At its GTC conference on March 18th, Nvidia unveiled its next-generation AI GPUs, outlining a timeline for their release: the Blackwell Ultra GB300, scheduled for the second half of this year; the Vera Rubin, expected in the latter half of next year; and the Rubin Ultra, targeted for the second half of 2027.

Why It Matters: Apart from its SuperFluid cooling tech, Intel is also reportedly undertaking a strategic overhaul of its chip design and expanding its foundry services, aiming to attract Nvidia and Broadcom Inc. (NASDAQ:AVGO) as clients.

UBS analyst Timothy Arcuri predicts Intel’s new CEO, Lip-Bu Tan, will focus on design and foundry, with Intel potentially securing Nvidia as a foundry client for gaming chips, despite power concerns.

Arcuri also reports Intel is advancing its 18A process and aiming to challenge Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. Ltd. (NYSE:TSM) with packaging innovations.

Intel’s partnership with United Microelectronics Corp. (NYSE:UMC), targeting late 2026 production, could position them as a second high-voltage FinFET supplier after TSMC, potentially attracting Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL).

Price Action: INTC rose 0.85% on Thursday, and it was down 0.38% in premarket on Friday. The stock has risen 16.82% on a year-to-date basis, whereas it is 46.52% lower over the year.
