Title: Just when I thought my gaming PC was maxed out... what's the craziest PC build you've ever seen?

Just got back from a LAN party and I saw this guy's build that blew my mind - it was an ATX case, but instead of the usual GPU, he had two NVIDIA A40's and three Ryzen 9 7950X CPUs running in Quad-SLI. I know it's not practical, but the frame rates on that thing were insane. What's the craziest PC build you've all seen?

"Dude, I once saw a build that had 6 GPUs and a 96-core CPU. It was a beast but I don't think even 4K gaming could handle it The owner used it for data mining, not even gaming"

"Dude, I once saw a build with an NVIDIA Tesla V100 and 6x 1080ti in SLI, the guy was running AAA games at 8K resolutions, I was blown away. His case was literally a custom-built server rack, looked like a mini data center. Still can't get over the sheer power of that setup."

"Dude, I saw this insane build at a gaming convention last year - it had a custom watercooled case and 24 GPUs in total! The whole thing was pushed to 12,000 watts of power, and it was running a 4K 8-monitor array. Still can't wrap my head around it."

"Dude, I'm still shook by a build I saw at E3 last year - 24x 3080 GPUs and 4 x5930 CPUs, all liquid cooled. It was a custom, multi-room gaming station. Can't even imagine the power bill"
