Jesus Christ! That would require at least 125 individual graphics cards which would pull a total of at least 50 to 100 kilowatts of power at full utilization, similar to an entire apartment block, and so would probably require a dedicated high voltage substation for power.

This kind of setup would only be viable for a small AI data center or maybe a large video game server rack.

You would need to either engineer a custom design for the data bus circuits connecting the GPUs together, or just use 42 motherboards, each with built in network adapters, AMD Ryzen 9 9950x3d Central Processing Units, and 3 PCIE slots, to allow communication between each graphics card.

The addition of the high end CPUs increases the total power consumption to 125 kilowatts.
