they have a line of product called Klimax, this year they suppose to deliver a 24 Pci rack
and in 2020 a 72 slots :o

i wonder how good they are going to be

My first reaction is this.  Is there a home or apartment anywhere that has the electrical connections to accommodate the power requirements?  It's only home is probably a proper data center with the necessary electrical connections and EXTREME cooling.

Even if you can power a beast like that, with 72 GPUs under full load, I won't ever need to turn on my heat in the dead of winter.

As far as how "good" it will be, what is your definition of good?  Being able to brute force some keyspaces with ease is the only benefit that I can think of.  I imagine there are quite a few downsides.  It's less portable, uses a lot of electricity, generates a lot of heat, is too expensive for most consumers, and if you have a failure, then that entire node goes down and becomes useless until repairs are made.

Good find though.  We will definitely be paying attention to developments made with these setups.
