NVIDIA H200

by NVIDIA

The memory-upgraded Hopper GPU that remains the AI workhorse.

Pros

  • 76% more memory than H100 at similar power
  • Broad availability across every cloud
  • Strong price/performance for inference

Cons

  • Hopper generation now superseded by Blackwell
  • Lower FP4 capability than Blackwell
  • Still expensive ($30k-$40k) per GPU

✓ Where it shines / best for

  • Mainstream LLM inference and serving
  • Fine-tuning and mid-scale training
  • Enterprises upgrading existing H100 fleets

✕ Not the best fit for

  • Frontier-scale training needing FP4 efficiency
  • Teams wanting the latest generation performance
  • Ultra-low-latency single-token inference niches

Features

  • ✓ 141 GB HBM3e with 4.8 TB/s bandwidth
  • ✓ 16,896 CUDA cores, 528 4th-gen Tensor Cores
  • ✓ FP8 Transformer Engine, 3,958 TFLOPS FP8
  • ✓ NVLink 4.0 at 900 GB/s per GPU
  • ✓ Available in SXM and PCIe (NVL) form factors
  • ✓ Drop-in compatible with H100 HGX systems
  • ✓ Mature CUDA / TensorRT-LLM ecosystem
  • ✓ 700W TDP, air- or liquid-coolable
