If you want to do it the cheap way by buying used stuff, the most expensive parts are:

- $2000 for a Threadripper 3xx5WX with a socket sWRX8 mainboard

- $5000 for 6x RTX 3090

- $350 for two 1500W PSUs

- $700 for 256GB RAM

You will also need PCIe extenders and perhaps some watercooling. And find a suitable case. The 2-card NVLink bridges are between $100 and $300 each (you nay want 3). All in all i think less than $10k.

Would rather put that in AWS.
AWS is probably among the priciest options.

Privacy costs money.
