what kind of machine is that? Been vaguely looking for one a while back, and everything seemed difficult to get (since the main target is large-volume customers I guess)

Sorry, I didn't see this earlier. It's Supermicro board with an Epyc 3201 (8c/8t), base frequency is ~1.5 Ghz. There's no CPU fan, so it can get quite hot. It throttles at 94 degrees celcius, and it will hit that if more than around 4-6 cores are being fully used. However there are options in the bios to disable some of the cores. In my case I've disabled 4 of the cores and the temperature is much more reasonable now.
