But that limit is well below on what you could get even in a gaming machine (AWS cpus are SMT threads, so a 32 core machine is actually 64 cpus by AWS) - you can get that in a high end workstation, and I'd guess that's way more power than most people end up using even in their large-ish scale AWS projects.

Not on the AMD machines from m7 (and the others which share the same architecture)
