The $12,000 one also requires it.
Surprisingly affordable but I’m not really interested in the 9070XT.
If it shipped with like 4090+ (for a higher price) it’d be more tempting.
They offered a version a few months ago with 4x5090 for 25k

Stopped due to raising GPU prices:
9070XT provide roughly same inference performance at double the power, half the cost, as RTX PRO 4500. So this one is optimized for total BOM cost.
The specs show that it only has one PSU. The docs just say that it has 2 and thus needs two circuits, but I’d guess that was meant to be for the more expensive one.
