Eight processing units within a single system

Running only a couple or four CPUs during gaming isn't ideal, that's not the purpose of QPI. It would likely lag behind using a single Xeon.

I understand it's a bit silly, but I think it's interesting to call it a decent effort in gaming. Having many Xeons in a computer can be costly, simple, and actually impressive.

They've already made many humorous videos testing performance on powerful workstations and servers. It seems this issue has been addressed before, so we're likely aware of what happens.

They clearly understand the implications of their choices, using precise calculations to justify their decisions.

This idea stands out: when consumer CPUs run fast but have few cores, games won't fully benefit from Xeon Platinum or Epyc chips.

Located : Intel Xeon Platinum 8267W (support for octa cores) = 24 cores / 48 threads running at 4.2 GHz in turbo mode, 6-channel DDR4-2933 memory, 205 W power consumption.

Also consider the extra delay from the OS needing to change between different operating systems and handling various inputs. That contributes significantly.
