Dell has shipped the first Nvidia GB300 NVL72 rack-scale solution to CoreWeave.

CoreWeave plans to bring its GB300 servers online throughout 2025, with this initial rack deployment set to be “fully assembled, tested, and deployed in the US,” Dell said.

The Nvidia GB300 NVL72 rack-scale solution connects 72 Blackwell Ultra GPUs and 36 Arm Neoverse-based Nvidia Grace CPUs in a single liquid-cooled rack, which the company claims offers 1.5x more AI performance than the Nvidia GB200 NVL72.

Nvidia’s Blackwell Ultra chip, first unveiled in March at Nvidia’s annual GTC conference, combines two reticle-sized GPUs, has 15 petaflops of FP4 performance, and 288GB of HBM3e.

“This deployment will support CoreWeave’s expanding AI cloud platform, simplifying everything from large language model training and reasoning to real-time inferencing,” wrote Arthur Lewis, president of infrastructure solutions group (ISG) at Dell Technologies, in a blog post announcing the news.

He added: “At Dell, we’re just not building platforms. We are charting a course for full-stack enterprise AI.“

CoreWeave was founded in 2017 as a cryptomining firm but has become one of the biggest players in AI infrastructure after pivoting to offer access to GPUs.

The company began trading on the Nasdaq stock exchange on March 28, offering shares at $40 each and giving it the potential to raise up to $1.5bn with the IPO - $2.5bn less than the $4bn some analysts had predicted for the offering.

CoreWeave currently has 31 data centers globally, with additional sites planned.

Beyond the detail that the rack will be deployed in the US, no information about where CoreWeave will house its Nvidia GB300 NVL72 servers has been disclosed. In March 2025, the company announced it had selected a Bulk Infrastructure data center in Norway to host an Nvidia GB200 NVL72 cluster deployment.
