LG Electronics shares surge 6% after Nvidia qualifies AI cooling unit

LG Electronics Inc shares surged over 6% on Tuesday after Nvidia qualified its 2.6-megawatt coolant distribution unit for the chipmaker’s DSX AI Factory platform. The qualification provides LG with a stronger foothold in the rapidly growing liquid-cooling market for high-density AI data centers. The 2.6MW CDU, designed to manage heat from large AI server clusters, meets Nvidia's DSX reference-design requirements and has been listed on the NVIDIA DSX AI Factory Marketplace.

This move comes as AI accelerators become increasingly power-intensive, raising the heat generated by data-center servers, and highlights LG's "Chip-to-Chiller" portfolio, which covers cooling from heat absorption at AI chips to heat rejection at the data-center facility.
