NVIDIA Moves 800-VDC Power Architecture From Concept to Production
TechTarget, Tuesday, August 19th, 2025
An MGX-compatible 800-VDC power rack enters production in H2 2026, with AC facility power still in place.
NVIDIA has moved its 800-VDC power architecture into production planning, with an MGX-compatible 800-VDC power rack entering production in the second half of 2026.
The approach is deliberately hybrid: high-voltage DC goes to AI compute racks while the broader facility keeps running on existing AC distribution.
Three deployment options are planned, starting with rack-adjacent power racks in Q3 2026, centralized power centers targeted for Q3 2027, and data hall-level power blocks using solid-state transformers around 2029.
Maintaining compatibility with existing facility infrastructure is what makes the path viable, and the design targets up to 1 MW per rack in future native 800-VDC configurations.
