Budget estimate

$2,000,000 – $5,000,000

No contract value is disclosed. Based on the detailed specs (multiple 48‑core CPUs, high‑end GPUs, liquid cooling, networking, and a three‑year warranty), a comparable university HPC acquisition typically runs between $2 million and $5 million total. The lower bound assumes minimal optional nodes; the upper bound assumes the full optional node increments and premium support services.
