128GB / 12 GB = ~11, * 200€ = only 2200€ plus mining rig mobo.

It would be cheaper to buy up a dozen 3060s and build a custom PC around them than to buy the Spark.

It will be really hard to put a dozen in a single PC. Then to connect them at good speed. Add to that a few new power lines to feed it all.

True, and overkill too. With DDR5 partial offloading it would only take probably two or three at most to outperform it in every metric except power draw. My point was more that the pricing is absurd for the performance.

[Mars008]

I agree on pricing. But it includes 'free' software. Similar model Apple has. You don't buy just hardware.

Except the Spark was designed to have everything nicely working.

And as this post shows, it doesn't.

More than most AMD stuff.
