@Patrick that is quite the setup!

Do we have any inventory of DPUs somewhere here on the site?

What do you mean by an inventory of DPUs @nitrobass24 ?

 

[Evan]

I think he just means a list of the different available options from the different vendors.

It is so refreshing then between TR CPU and that ASUS mobo you get non-blocking SEVEN PCIe x16 v4 slots (112 PCIe lanes).
After years of needing to double-check the manual if you use just TWO PCIe v3 x16 cards, you'd nearly guarantee to share some PCIe lanes

Ah, if that is the case, there has not been too much new this year, but maybe next year is worth doing a refresh for them.

Fungible has pushed more into NVMe/TCP and Marvell / Intel are not GA yet.
