Nvidia GPU Equipment Sits Idle as AWS Sites Face Power Shortages

Large amounts of Nvidia GPU equipment are idle in transit warehouses as multiple AWS sites face power shortages, delaying deployment of hardware included in Amazon's planned rack purchases. Amazon's early-receipt plan calls for about $5 billion in Nvidia GB300 server racks for deployment to U.S. data centers. It also calls for roughly $3 billion in additional hardware purchases each month going forward. Earlier coverage of Amazon's rack plan described the figures as rack deliveries. The $5 billion amount refers to planned early receipt, while $3 billion a month refers to planned hardware purchases.
