MHS Unveils ‘MACS' Micro Aqua Cooling System to Tackle AI Semiconductor Heat in Datacenters
As generative artificial intelligence (AI) dramatically raises computational demands—such as creating over 700 million images within one week using ChatGPT (equivalent to the daily electricity consumption of approximately 67,000 U.S. households)—heat generation in AI semiconductors has become a pressing concern for datacenter operators. South Korean tech firm MHS is introducing MACS (Micro Aqua Cooling System) - a cutting-edge liquid-based cooling solution that utilizes a microchannel structure to significantly enhance coolant flow and expand the heat-exchange surface area. This design delivers performance that far exceeds that of conventional water-cooling systems. MHS is actively validating MACS technology through expanding collaboration with Korean AI semiconductor fabless companies, including Furiosa AI and Rebellion AI, positioning itself at the forefront of datacenter cooling innovation. 'No matter how advanced AI semiconductors become, without effective cooling, they simply cannot perform at scale,' stated Jason Lim, CEO of MHS. 'System availability ultimately depends on cooling technology,' he added. Lim emphasized that modern AI processors typically generate heat far exceeding one kilowatt, underscoring the necessity of liquid-cooling methods. While immersion cooling—fully submerging servers in dielectric fluid—is under consideration industry-wide, Lim cautioned that its 'high infrastructure cost' and 'management complexity' make it impractical for many datacenter operators. In contrast, MACS utilizes narrow (tens to hundreds of micrometers) microchannels, optimized flow paths, and capillary-driven fluid dynamics to achieve effective heat removal even at modest flow rates. Lim pointed to NVIDIA's AI H100 processor—which dissipates approximately 700W—and noted that future generations ('Blackwell,' 'Rubin,' and 'Panther') could generate heat loads up to 1 kW per chip, intensifying the demand for highly effective and reliable cooling solutions. In May, despite a global slowdown in venture capital investment, MHS secured Series A funding from WeVentures and Gyeongnam Venture Investment to accelerate the commercialization of MACS and expand R&D capacity. With MACS poised to meet the rising demand for datacenter cooling, MHS plans to expand its international presence and explore partnerships with global AI infrastructure leaders.

Super Salute's fan base looks all set to broaden
Super Salute has shown racegoers that he is not just a "one-track" pony. A prolific winner at Kranji - nine, seven for Jason Lim and two for Richard Lim (of no relation) - including three at Group level, the son of I Am Invincible has since gone where they send him. After he crossed the Causeway to continue his career in Malaysia following the closure of Singapore racing in October, he has tried his utmost to turn on the charm despite a bad back. He may have yet to garner that kind of support at his new home in Selangor, but he is getting there. Under the care of his new trainer, the Kuala Lumpur-based Sivan Veerapen, he has already won twice, once at his home base and once in Ipoh. Racing fans at Ipoh will remember him for that win on their track on April 13. That day, under a ride from 4kg claimer Nik Shahronnizam and sent off a raging favourite, Super Salute justified all that confidence by beating Mega Gems by almost four lengths over the 1,300m. It was then back to Kuala Lumpur for his next task on May 4. Pitted against some really good opposition and sent over the same 1,300m journey - this time in the more experienced hands of Shafiq Rizuan - Super Salute unleashed a run at the top of the stretch to beat Pacific Victory by ¾-length. Not done yet, he still had Penang to conquer and he could not have chosen a bigger and better stage to pull it off. It was on May 31, the day the curtain was to fall on racing at Penang when Super Salute took the commemorative race, the Penang Turf Club Farewell Trophy (1,300m) in dominant fashion, beating Pacific Vampire by 2½ lengths. A record of three wins at all three Malaysian tracks, from nine race starts, is surely something to crow about. That genuineness was still there for all to see on the morning of June 17, when he emerged as one of the stars on the training track at Sungai Besi. Taken out for a romp, he was not extended to clock 41.2sec for the 600m. Back to the present and Sivan has picked a challenging race at Kuala Lumpur on June 22 for his six-year-old. It is the Supreme "A" contest to be run over the 1,400m and Super Salute - with his rating of 117 - will have to give weight to all of his rivals. However, on the back of that most recent workout, Super Salute looks to be in a good place right now and should run a good race. Also catching the eye on the same morning were So We Fight and Commander. Both looked in good order when clocking 41.2sec for the 600m. The Simon Dunderdale-trained So We Fight is a galloper going places. The four-year-old son of So You Think has had a break since his last race on April 5 when he led but faded to eighth to Red Dragonfly in a Class 4A (1,400m). On June 22, the three-time winner (1,020m to 1,500m) will have just his second race over 1,200m. His last seven outings have all been over 1,400m and beyond. Given his preference for racing from the front, the shorter 1,200m of that Class 4A race could be just what he is looking for - especially coming off a break. Another one from Dunderdale's stable, Commander has been a good horse to have in the barn. Formerly with Donna Logan, who saddled him to one win at Kranji on Dec 17, 2023, the son of U S Navy Flag has turned the corner since joining Dunderdale. After a wining debut for his new yard in a Class 5A race (1,300m) in Kuala Lumpur on Sept 8, he doubled up two weeks later when stepped up to a Class 4 (1,400m) at the same track, beating Golden Lightning by ¾-length. Thereafter, Commander found the competition tougher in that grade, albeit he managed to eke out another win from Leopard Eclipse in a 1,400m contest on Dec 8, which was to be the last time he greeted the judge. He has mixed his form since, but would have inspired stable confidence when he finished second - by a neck - in his last start in a Class 4B race (1,150m) on June 7. At his 30th race start this weekend, he will trot out with a handy weight of 54.5kg. If anything, he deserves more than just a second glance. brian@

‘Think of your husband as a dog.' Sage marriage advice from Korean monk Venerable Pomnyun
By Jason Lim Advertisement 'My husband doesn't respond to me when I complain to him about something,' a middle-aged woman grumbles to Venerable Pomnyun, a well-known Korean Seon ( Zen) Buddhist monk who is famous for his ability to deliver profound life lessons in simple, sometimes startling ways. 'Does a dog answer you when you ask it a question?' Venerable Pomnyun responds with his question. 'No, of course not. That's why it's easier to raise a dog. You don't ask a dog whether it wants to eat or not. You just feed it, and it's grateful for it. 'So, think of your husband as a dog that you are raising, and you will have no problems at all. I mean, your husband goes to the bathroom by himself, right?' Venerable Pomnyun is a Korean Zen Buddhist monk famous for his ability to deliver profound life lessons in simple ways.
