Nice, but $8k?  I don't even have that much money in the bank!  Oh well, regular old Ryzen for me.

Given the price of secondhand server CPU's, it will be a couple of hundred dollars in 2 to 5 years. Then I'll get duo or quad CPU mainboard!

Not a 64 core CPU but that's why Ian & Steve are killing it on Universe@Home.

There's always people out there with very deep pockets :)
