Nvidia Corp. revealed April 14 plans to build supercomputers in the United States, including in the Dallas area.
The chipmaker announced plans for factories that, for the first time, will produce new supercomputers entirely in the U.S., a move seen as a response to tariffs that will make importing both components and finished goods more costly for technology companies.
Nvidia (Nasdaq: NVDA) said it will work with “manufacturing partners” to build the factories in Arizona and Texas. In Dallas, that partner will be Wistron, a Taiwan-based contract manufacturer that creates information technology and telecommunication products for many clients. It has a large plant in McKinney.
Details on the scope of the Dallas-area plant were not available and Nvidia so far has declined to comment beyond the announcement. Nvidia said it has “commissioned more than a million square feet of manufacturing space” in total and estimated the investment would “create hundreds of thousands of jobs.”
