User documents powerful dual RTX 6000 build under heavy load

A user on the r/LocalLLaMA subreddit documented an extended benchmark test of their dual RTX 6000 GPU build. The system, powered by a 1600W PSU, reached approximately 1650W at the wall with the CPU at 100% utilization and GPUs capped at 535W each. The user focused on testing the CPU cooler's thermal performance under load, noting that it maintained around 95°C, indicating that power delivery, rather than thermals, is the current limiting factor for the build.
