Frequently Asked Questions

How much memory does NVIDIA H100 have?

NVIDIA H100 SXM has 80 GB of HBM3 memory with 3.35 TB/s bandwidth. The H200 increases this to 141 GB HBM3e at 4.8 TB/s.

How does AMD MI300X compare to NVIDIA H100?

AMD MI300X vs H100 SXM: 2.4x more memory (192 vs 80 GB), 1.58x more bandwidth (5.3 vs 3.35 TB/s), 1.32x more FP16 TFLOPS (1,307 vs 989), at ~$15K vs ~$30K MSRP. MI300X excels at memory-bound workloads like large model inference.

What GPU is best for inference workloads?

For inference: Small models (≤13B): L40S or L4 — best cost-per-token. 70B models: single H200 (141 GB fits LLaMA 70B FP16) or 2× H100. 100B+ models: AMD MI300X (192 GB) or multi-GPU cluster.
