Digi Power X (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DGXX#NASDAQ">DGXX</a>) stock gained on Thursday after it announced it has signed a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/07/g46463556/digi-power-x-acquires-supermicro-nvidia-b200-systems-to-launch-tier-3-neocloud-ai-infrastructure" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">definitive purchase order</a> with Super Micro Computer (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMCI#NASDAQ">SMCI</a>) to supply systems powered by Nvidia&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) latest B200 GPUs for its Tier 3 modular AI infrastructure, NeoCloud. 
These Supermicro systems, pre-qualified for the Blackwell B200 chips, will be deployed in Digi Power X&#8217;s proprietary ARMS 200 pods, with the first installation taking place at the company&#8217;s Alabama site. Operations are scheduled to begin in the fourth quarter of 2025.
CEO Michel Amar called the deal a turning point, noting it marks Digi Power X&#8217;s transition from infrastructure buildout to revenue generation. The company expects each megawatt of its Tier 3 AI infrastructure to generate recurring revenue through high-performance GPU cloud rentals via its NeoCloud portal.

Digi Power X intends to finance its expansion using non-dilutive debt backed by AI compute revenue. It aims for full equity retention with a payback period of under three years. The company is working on its ARMS 300 platform, which will support Nvidia&#8217;s next-gen B300 chips. The plan is to deploy 55 megawatts of Tier 3 AI infrastructure by 2027. Following Alabama, additional deployments are planned in Upstate New York.

Powered by Intel&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>) newest Xeon 6 processors with Performance-Cores, the servers are built to handle critical tasks like in-memory databases and scientific simulations that require high memory and low latency.
These new systems—part of Supermicro&#8217;s Data Center Building Block Solutions—offer significantly more performance than earlier 4-socket models. Businesses can now tap into up to 16TB of memory and run up to six double-width GPUs in a single machine, making them ideal for AI training, analytics, and virtualization, without the need to scale across multiple servers.
