Ryzen is for Programmers

I have both HP g6 blades and Dell C6100 blades at home...you can get both for about $200/node with 2xquad core and 24G of Ram. The only real issues with them are the NOISE and the electric usage. 16 nodes sounds like your living in an airport. The HP is 8 nodes with a shipping weight of 300 pounds. Cost $350 for shipping, IIRC - pop the sleds and the heaviest part is probably ~25 pounds, easy to handle without help. The HP blades also came with mellonox 10G cards.

With a drill and duct tape, it can be done
