Supermicro CEO Charles Liang said that the possible delay of NVIDIA's new Blackwell GPUs for AI and HPC systems will not have a dramatic impact on AI server makers, or the AI server market. Liang said: "We heard NVIDIA may have some delay, and we treat that as a normal possibility".

Liang continued: "When they introduce a new technology, new product, [there is always a chance] there will be a push out a little bit. In this case, it pushed out a little bit. But to us, I believe we have no problem to provide the customer with a new solution like H200 liquid cooling. We have a lot of customers like that. So, although we hope better deploy in the schedule, that's good for a technology company, but this push out overall impact to us. It should be not too much".
