What motherboard do they use? (Or do they design their own now?)

The ASUS logo is visible in the photo of the innards.

I'm guessing it'll depend on the GPU (and CPU) choice, putting the cheapest that is sufficient for the choice.

Haha, bloody hell, mate. $17k a pop? I bought these for $8k-ish. That's bonkers to buy this when newer flash models won't fit on this any more. DeepSeek V4 Flash seems the last in its line, and then you have to count on Qwen Next. Seems like a waste honestly.

Seems they might be selling a combo of dual RTX Pro 6000 workstation cards (non-refundable), but the setup they have, unless they change how the GPUs cooling work, isn't gonna work out thermally if you stack two of those workstation cards on top of each other. But it doesn't say WS or "Workstation", so I suppose could be the server variant too? But also doesn't say...

Hope they have good overall cooling the case, cooling doesn't seem to be mentioned, it'll be a noisy little machine no doubt :)

Page mentions liquid cooling, for what it's worth.

I thought it was a pricing mistake. But no, you just have to select the variations. $42,412.00

wouldnt you be better off maxing out the new Mac hardware? the memory bandwidth is insane on those jobbies
