What is the best hardware that LCzero can use today?

I read a claim that it could be stronger in case of using 4 TPUs but the question is if it is designed to use this hardware.

If yes maybe somebody who has this hardware can test it.

Taking ideas is not a vice, it is a virtue. We have another word for this. It is called learning.
But sharing ideas is an even greater virtue. We have another word for this. It is called teaching.
