Water usage has been a hot topic in the AI data center world, but the numbers may surprise you.
According to the Manhattan Institute, data centers use 0.2 percent of daily water usage in the U.S. and that number has dramatically decreased in the past few years due to a new method: liquid cooling.
By moving to 45°C liquid cooling, AI factories in favorable climates can use dry coolers instead of conventional cooling-tower-based systems, cutting facility cooling water use from roughly 2.6M gallons per MW per year to near zero.
Liquid cooling enables AI factories to be both water and energy efficient, while creating opportunities for heat reuse and dispersal to local communities, allowing these factories to become energy grid assets.

Today we're open-sourcing Bumblebee, a read-only scanner for macOS and Linux.
It checks developer machines for risky packages, extensions, and AI tool configs.
Connected to Computer, it can trigger deeper scans whenever a new supply-chain risk emerges.

Intel's Core i9-14900KF has set a new all-time CPU frequency world record at 9.206 GHz.
The record was achieved by Chinese extreme overclocker wytiwx and validated on HWBOT.
The run used liquid helium cooling on an ASUS ROG Maximus Z790 Apex motherboard, with only the performance cores active during the single-core validation in CPU-Z.
This breaks the previous record of approximately 9.13 GHz on the same processor family and marks the first time any CPU has officially crossed the 9.2 GHz mark.
For context, the chip’s stock maximum turbo frequency is around 6 GHz.
@davidbombal Funny story.. I was working with some Microsoft engineers to fix some of our clients dragon copilot when it was in beta.. when referring to edge and opening browsers they kept calling it chrome. When I said you’re not wrong since it’s chromium they chuckled and agreed..
