Read the spec sheet...

6 channels per socket (2 controllers with 3 lanes each), 8 sockets, and 64 GB LR DIMMs.

128 DIMMs are $2-3k a pop.

192 sockets, 8 way, up to 24TB of ram w 128GB or 12TB with 64GB sticks:

If someone wants to throw more money on RAM to be slightly faster, that's a solution design-decision; it's doubtful Amazon would do that. If they are, great.
