Microsoft bought nearly 500,000 Nvidia Hopper chips this year, more than twice that of any of its biggest rivals.

The tech giant bought 485,000 Nvidia Hopper chips across 2024, the Financial Times cited data from tech consultancy Omdia.

Microsoft's 2024 chip purchase more than tripled the number of Nvidia chips the company bought in 2023.

Microsoft is also building its own custom artificial intelligence chips, called Maia, which it announced at its Ignite conference in late 2023.

Microsoft also deepened its partnership with OpenAI and participated in the company's colossal 6.6-billion-U.S.-dollar funding round in October.

Meta bought 224,000 of the same flagship Nvidia chips this year.
