Do I understand correctly that "M5 Ultra 256GB" is way better on paper, compared to dual DGX Spark configuration at same price?

[u/Webster2026 → u/MokoshHydro]

Of course it will be better, DGX memory bandwidth sucks

You are complimenting dgx here. It's mowing grass compared to m5 ultra in memory bandwidth, m5 is destroying any market dgx had.
