100gbe mellanox connect x cards are not actually that expensive though.

You'd need a switch too, unless you're going point-to-point but that will eat up PCI slots that you probably would like to use for GPUs.

mikrotik makes some pretty nice hardware for rather cheap. they now offer a 4x100Gbps switch for $800, which is a darn good price.

Indeed, at $200 / port that's really neat if that's all you need. Funny, I remember paying close to $1000 / port for 100 mbps not all that long ago :)

You really want gpu rdma though. It's a bit of a pain to get setup but it's worth it.

Not on the 3090 though, isn't it?
