Current gen CPUs don't go on sale too often. I was researching the EPYC line and saw these on ebay. They've got 32 cores like the 7601's and just appear to be slightly lower clocks. $2219 ea.
Here's the link
New AMD EPYC 32 CORE PROCESSOR 7551 2.0GHZ 64MB L3 CACHE TDP 180W PS7551BDVIHAF | eBay
base/all c turbo/max turbo
EPYC 7551 2.0/2.55/3.0
EPYC 7601 2.2/2.7/3.2
Half the price for losing 200mhz only is good. I'm thinking VMware consolidation is about to happen. That seller has over 10 for sale.
