What do you want to do with the workstation? I have a similar setup:
- 512 GB
- Epyc 9684x
- 2x RTX 6000 Pro
- 1400 W PSU x 2 but in redundant mode
Mine is in a colo where it stays nice and cool. In my case, I went with less RAM and more GPUs (bought 4). Secondarily, the Max-Q blower version of an RTX 6000 Pro Blackwell is easier to keep cool and also only needs 300 W at the cost of very little performance. The non-max-q also only really use 300 W during inference, but the good thing about a lower power use is you can put more GPUs in very safely.
I assume you want the Threadripper Pro to maximize single-core performance? So you're spending a lot of time on CPU? Interesting stuff.
I gained a lot putting the machine somewhere else. TTFT on a thing like this is between 100-800 ms depending on batching and model size and so on, and your nearest datacenter is likely <10 ms. It sits on nice dual redundant power in a place where it's blown icy cool.
Good luck with your setup. If you get around to it, and end up writing about your setup on a blog, do share. Email in profile.
