Processors and video cards for servers can reach a combined consumption of up to 1000W in the year 2025. At least, that’s what a leaked calendar from the servers division of Gigabyte, Giga Computingwhich estimates these numbers for the year cited, with CPUs reaching 600W.
In fact, both pieces are more advanced with each generation and show more and more firepower and advanced technologies, with the right to a wide range of resources. However, another point that also increases with new launches is the level of energy consumption.
The forecasts shown by the calendar place the consumption of future chips from the major manufacturers currently on the market: Intel, AMD and NVIDIA. In this sense, the owner of the Core lines may have products with consumption of 500W, while the red rival may have items with energy consumption of 600W.
In the video card sector, things are not much different, with predictions for 2025 bringing NVIDIA GPUs with 500W of consumption and AMD with 400W. In this way, a computer with a video card and processor will have a consumption that can exceed 1000W without much effort.
This leaked calendar also gives us a brief idea of ​​server-oriented releases from the aforementioned companies. For example, Intel should bring solutions in 2024 that exceed 300W, while AMD may have chips with 400W. Finally, it is also worth mentioning the NVIDIA cards with SXM socket, which in 2024 can reach 700W.
Check also: the details about the AMD Instinct MI400, possible brand processor for the category, as well as the priorities signaled by the company about these chips.
