> It's just too easy for anyone to throw together a Supermicro machine with 6x GPUs in it, which is what it sounds like they'll be doing.

HPC compute is well advanced past just slapping GPUs into generic supermicro servers anyway. Without semi-custom hardware and equivalents to nvlink/nvswitch AMD won't ever be competitive in the HPC space.

SuperMicro has HGX servers. $300k buys you an 8xH100 chassis with crazy amounts of memory, storage, CPU and GPU compute.
