Besides the GB300, you've got to power all of the networking hardware.

There's a whole bunch of CPU and storage stuff that's happening.

You've got to size for your peak cooling requirements.

So that means can you cool even on the worst hours, the worst day of the year?

It's pretty freaking hot in Memphis.

You're going to have a 40% increase on your power just for cooling.

Assuming you don't want your data center to turn off on hot days and you want it to keep going.

Then you've got to say, well, there's another multiplicative element on top of that, which is

Are you assuming that you never have any hiccups in your power generation?

Like, oh, well, actually, sometimes we have to take the generators, some of the power offline in order to service it.

Oh, okay, now you add another 20%, 25% multiplier on that because you've got to assume that you've got to take power offline to service it.

So the actual RS, roughly every 110,000 GBs, GB300s, inclusive of networking, CPU storage, cooling, margin for servicing power is roughly 300 megawatts.

Sorry, say that again.

It's roughly, or think about it, like...

What you need at the generation level to service 330,000 GB300s, including all of the associated support networking and everything else, and the peak cooling, and to have some power margin reserve, is roughly a gigawatt.

Again, try doing it, and then you'll see.

Like, the turbines are sold out through 2030.

Have you guys considered making your own?

I think in order to bring enough power online, I think SpaceX and Tesla will probably have to make the turbine blades, the benzene blades, internally.

But just the blades or the turbines?
