Keep your Xeon Gold's ... I raise you Tesla Golds.
Fully populated XL270d Gen9 Server trays... ready to slide into the chassis.
the other 10(8 pictured) are for other boxes. The answer to the universe is clearly 42 telsa v100s.

what possible use can you have or can your company throw money towards 24 x V100s?
you don’t just spend six figures on a ML hobby (unless you are Patrick) there must be some business reasoning behind it.
If it’s ML I am curious what they are doing to justify 200k
What in general justifies these kinds of gpu’s.. could be medicinal, image analysis etc.. list goes on. But yes, $200k USD in a box is quite crazy
42 pictured, Apollo 6500 gen9's , 4 XL270d nodes, 8 V100's each, and the cards for the DL380s are on top.
It's more than 200k, but not a single box.
We are developing the reference architectures for the use cases that would be justified in using these, and supporting customers that use them.
That was Jan, this is now... SXM2
Not to worry, it takes 9x 120mm fans. I've got 6 of what I need, 3 more on order.@funkywizard I think you're going to need a larger fan..
They also make a model that takes 9x 140mm fans.
what? why mess around with 9x 140mm fans when you can have:

it's probably even cheaper than 9x 140mm fans...
Well, the rads are designed to mount the 120's / 140's (depending on the rad) I guess is one reason. The 9x120mm rad will also accommodate 4x 180mm instead. The 9x140mm rad will accommodate 4x200mm instead. But yeah, the fan you linked will be cheaper, maybe half the price. No clear specs on power use or airflow however.
9x noctua 120mm's are rated for maybe 30w. 9x noctua 140mm, around 60w. Good airflow, tolerable noise levels (even at max rpm), and adequate static pressure as well. All of those being at least as important as the initial purchase price. Did consider some other fans. Delta has PDF's for everything they sell so I checked there. Looking at the delta website I couldn't find fans that seemed appropriate at less than twice the watts. So I'd certainly consider other fans, I just don't have any in mind that are overall better options.
Honestly, I'd like to use thicker fans, but again, the included mounting hardware isn't designed for that, so starting out with more standard stuff. Key words -- "starting out" =D
