A GPU cluster next to my servers has done this, presumably they couldn't have 64A in one rack so they've got 32A in two. (230V 3phase.)
- pixl97 1y agoRackspace is typically at a premium at most data centers.
- Symbiote 1y agoI'm more surprised that a data centre will apparently provide more power to a rack than is safe to use.
- toast0 1y agoMy info may be dated, but power density has gone up a ton over time. I'd expect a lot of datacenters to have plenty of space, but not much power. You can only retrofit so much additional power distribution and cooling into a building designed for much less power density.
