Bro, I did a build within your original budget using an EPYC Genoa ES
It’s a 9334 that curiously outperformed the production piece in testing.
192GB DDR5 and all the good shits throughout.
BUT, you’ll need to add an ATX or WX card for perfect pass-through and keep the WX4100 for hypervisor acceleration if you’re runnin Winders.
Also, I’d recommend the SuperMicro board for GPU clearance.
