L40S vs H100 compared on specs, dollars-per-hour and bandwidth-per-dollar. The L40S wins compute-per-dollar; the H100 wins bandwidth-bound LLM inference.
The B200 is one Blackwell GPU, the GB200 is a Grace + 2-GPU superchip, and the NVL72 is a 72-GPU rack. What each is, the specs, and which to buy or rent.
Four NVIDIA cards get called "RTX 6000," and three page-one results compare the wrong one. Verified specs for the RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell against every H100 variant — plus our own bandwidth-per-dollar calculation on published cloud rates.
Co-packaged optics is shipping and Marvell just bought Celestial AI for $3.25B. We compare the seven silicon photonics companies that matter in AI data centers on specs, funding and who is actually in production.
Every A100 vs H100 comparison ranking on Google is published by a company that rents you GPUs. Here is a neutral one, built from NVIDIA datasheets and MLPerf results: the real dense-precision specs, the 1.7-4.3x speedup range, verified hourly pricing, and a straight verdict.
Independently measured, Cerebras runs gpt-oss-120b at 1,737 tokens per second against Groq's 477 — about 3.6x faster, at higher input cost. Nvidia did not acquire Groq; it licensed the technology for a reported $20B and the DOJ is investigating. Cerebras IPO'd in May 2026.
B200's real advantage over H200 is 1.6x to 2.3x, not the 4x NVIDIA's FP4 headline implies. Verified specs, MLPerf results at matched precision, and current rental prices.
