At Computex 2025, we saw a new AmpereOne motherboard, the ASRock AMPONEMD12DNO. We were told this is still an early board, and it looks like it, but at least it is showing a new AmpereOne M platform as those have been few and far between.

Folks looking at the NVIDIA GB200 NVL72 and GB300 NVL72 racks might have seen that the power and liquid cooling have been standardized between various components. NVIDIA took an OCP ORv3 Rack and enhanced it for its NVL72 designs. At NVIDIA GTC 2025, we saw a number of liquid cooling manifolds out of the MGX racks. This was neat to see both the standardization of the components and the variations between eight different vendors.
