04:22 AM EDT, 10/08/2024 (MT Newswires) -- Apple's ( AAPL ) largest iPhone assembler, Foxconn, is building the world's biggest production facility in Mexico for bundling Nvidia's ( NVDA ) GB200 superchips, Reuters reported Tuesday citing senior executives at the Taiwanese company.
The GB200 superchips are a key component of Nvidia's ( NVDA ) next-generation Blackwell family computing platform, the demand for which is "awfully huge," according to Foxconn's senior vice president for the cloud enterprise solutions business group, Benjamin Ting.
Foxconn Chairman Young Liu told reporters that the plant's capacity would be "very, very enormous" but did not specify the exact amount, Reuters said.
Liu further said that the company's manufacturing capabilities include the "advanced liquid cooling and heat dissipation technologies necessary to complement the GB200 server's infrastructure."
