The dev kit has no purchase limit. Same is true for the dev platform workstation 32, 64, 80, 128 core (and a 96 faster cores option if you ask nicely). https:/

For those keeping score the Ampere Altra 128 core 3GHz Supermicro telco edge server being used in 5G base stations benchmarks equal to 100 RPi4 and 22% more energy efficient.

- cjbgkagh 3y agoInteresting, when I first saw these chips my thought was Epic performance for Epic prices, now it looks like 2x Ryzen performance for 2x the price. Which is a huge improvement, I could save on the other ancillary costs of putting together a computer so it could probably be quite cost effective overall. I think I’m just outside of the target market for these chips, my workloads are in bursts so power consumption isn’t a big deal for me. Given that it’s a big deal for others I would expect Ampere Altra to price their chips to a point to go after that market which makes total economic sense. It’s generally not good business to target cheapskates like myself. I do love the chips though.
