The Cray EX design used in Frontier has a limit per blade. Frontier and El Cap have two nodes per blade. Aurora, which uses more power, only has one node per blade. I imagine that ORv3 racks will have similar issues. We can remove 6KW per blade today and I am confident that we can remove some more. That said, we could reach a point where a blade might just be a single processor.
