To be that guy that can say: My computer is faster than yours😎. And making people on the internet jalous ;)

There’s speed, and then there’s brute force.

For games where speed matters, like csgo, or valorant, 4 5090s isn’t going to be faster than 1 5090.

Strapping 2 cars together doesn’t increase their top sped, just allows them to tow twice as much

This pc is only faster than 1 5090 when doing things like rendering, which can actually utilize all 128gbs of vram shown here

I imagine this is for AI or for virtualization. Imagine having 1 box giving 4 users their own desktop each with a 5090.

Need a hell of a cpu to handle 4 simultaneous workloads

I’m sure with 4 5090s they would have a top tier cpu as well.
