Fair warning: the BMCs on those suck so bad, and the firmware bundles are painful, since you need a working nvidia-specific container runtime to apply them, which you might not be able to get up and running because of a firmware bug causing almost all the ram to be presented as nonvolatile.
Are there better paths you would suggest? Any hardware people have reported better luck with?
Honestly, unless you //really// need nvlink/ib (meaning that copies and pcie trips are your bottleneck), you may do better with whatever commodity system with sufficient lanes, slots, and CFM is available at a good price.
