Also remember that the Mx Ultras have 2-3x the memory bandwidth. Looking at the benchmarks even Strix Halo seems to beat the Spark. Buying a 200 Gbps switch is $10k-$100k+ so don't imagine anyone actually will use the interconnect. The logical thing for Nvidia would be to sell a kit with three machines and cabling, and make it a ring with the dual ports per machine. Helps for some scenarios but not others with the 10 times slower network than memory bandwidth.

On another note to remember, you can also ring topology mac studios using TB5 for 120Gbps per link with four such ports, all using cheaply available cable

You could also connect Sparks in a 200 Gbps ring with cheapish ($90) cables.
