OpenAI and Oracle are collaborating on a massive AI data center project in Texas, known as 'Stargate', which will be equipped with Nvidia's GB200 Blackwell chips. The data center, located in Abilene, Texas, aims to become a transformative benchmark for next-generation AI innovation.

This ambitious project involves the purchase of 64,000 Nvidia GB200 chips, to be installed in phases with an initial rollout of 16,000 chips planned for completion within the next six months. The data center is expected to house all 64,000 of the chips by the end of 2026.

The GB200 Superchip, which combines a Grace CPU with two enhanced B200 GPUs and priced between $60,000-$70,000 per chip, will provide the necessary computing power for the facility. An OpenAI spokesperson confirmed their collaboration with Oracle on the design and delivery of the data center, noting that Oracle will oversee the acquisition and operation of the supercomputer being constructed. This venture is part of a larger $100 billion Stargate infrastructure initiative.
