Why stop at 80 H100s for a mere 6.4 terabytes of GPU memory?

Supermicro will sell you a full rack loaded with servers [1] providing 13.4 TB of GPU memory.

And with 132kW of power output, you can heat an olympic-sized swimming pool by 1°C every day with that rack alone. That's almost as much power consumption as 10 mid-sized cars cruising at 50 mph.
