   Microsoft details Azure Maia 300, targeting large-scale deployment in 2027

   Microsoft chairman and CEO Satya Nadella announced on the evening of Oct 12 that the company plans to deploy Azure Maia 300 at scale in 2027, according to a TMTPost analysis. Microsoft says the chip uses a software-defined dataflow architecture and a chiplet design with its compute die on TSMC's N2P process, offering 18TB/s peak memory bandwidth per accelerator at 950W thermal design power, while a rack-level system of 96 accelerators provides 27.6TB of HBM capacity and 1.7PB/s of aggregate bandwidth; the company claims 40% more AI tokens per megawatt than leading GPU systems. The Maia line has moved from Maia 100 (November 2023) to Maia 200, released in January and now in production carrying Copilot workloads, to Maia 300 for 2027, though the article notes Microsoft still relies heavily on Nvidia GPUs and CUDA and says its custom silicon will not replace third-party supply.

   AVC Q3 revenue hits record as analysts see liquid cooling running to 2027

   Taiwan's Asia Vital Components (AVC) posted record September revenue of NT$21.0bn, up 8% month-on-month and 45% year-on-year, and record third-quarter revenue of about NT$59.1bn, up 20% sequentially and 52% year-on-year, driven by strong Trainium demand and the initial ramp of NVIDIA's Vera Rubin platform, according to Citi and Daiwa notes. Both brokers kept Buy ratings, with price targets of NT$4,350 and NT$4,465, and expect further sequential growth in Q4 as Trainium shifts to liquid cooling, TPU projects enter mass production and Vera Rubin keeps ramping. Daiwa said AVC plans to expand liquid-cooling capacity sharply in 2027 — cold-plate module capacity up more than 50%, mostly in Vietnam, and cabinet and internal manifold capacity set to double, with most equipment due in Q2 2027 and production starting in Q3; liquid-cooling penetration in one ASIC customer project is forecast to rise from about 10% in 2026 to over 50% in 2027.
