We have simulation environments at work which are single core. The next state requires knowledge of the previous one. Can’t pipeline. This might work for us.

I still question if this is a better option than the non-S version. You’re spending a ton of power and likely running into thermal problems without excellent cooling for a very small improvement in single core performance

You should see the cost of what we did otherwise. We water cooled a bunch of gaming machines and that worked well until the ac broke and the machines got soaked. Still cheaper than time.
