A dual socket 2687W system (16C/32T, 3.1GHz base, 3.8GHz turbo, octa channel DDR3) can still keep up with a Ryzen 5600X for suitable workloads. And fits into 1U.
Much harder to emulate with a cluster of 486 or C64 (and then 2x2687 total power draw of >500W under full load would seem like a rounding error).
