"...the combination is expected to boost the number of tokens per second generated per watt of electricity consumed by as much as 5x."

If that actually pans out that's pretty big. I'm imagining competing data-centre proposals being put before municipalities. A lot easier to say yes to the one that'll suck 5x less power, use less water and make less noise.

Or would it mean they will consume the same amount of energy as other data-centers, but just produce 5x as many tokens, perhaps.
