I’ve recently completed my first PC build and loved the process of researching everything. Now I’m wondering what is the most powerful system someone can build locally? I know about the typical consumer facing high end products like the RTX 4090 and Ryzen 9 7950x. But Ive also seen server hardware, like AMD EPYC CPU (seen in the recent post here: https://www.reddit.com/r/LocalLLaMA/s/FXMyFnEx3m), A100, and HPUs, that have much greater capabilities. My goal is to eventually build a machine powerful enough to run multiple open source LLMs unquantized.

Say you had around $20,000 to build the most powerful home setup. How would you do it?

Note: I realize that $20,000 overkill for my goal. Just assume this is a thought experiment and money is no object.
