NVIDIA GB300 NVL72 (Blackwell Ultra)

by NVIDIA

Blackwell Ultra rack-scale system tuned for the age of AI reasoning.

Pros

  • Highest per-GPU memory (288 GB) for long-context reasoning
  • ~1.5x GB200 NVL72 AI performance
  • Same proven NVLink/CUDA rack-scale platform

Cons

  • 132-140 kW per rack exceeds most facilities' capacity
  • Multi-million-dollar cost (est. ~$3.7M-$4M+ per rack) and constrained supply
  • Mandatory liquid cooling and 800 Gb/s networking

✓ Where it shines / best for

  • Frontier reasoning-model inference and serving
  • Hyperscale training of the largest LLMs
  • AI cloud operators building next-gen capacity

✕ Not the best fit for

  • On-premise small clusters without liquid cooling
  • Edge or on-device use
  • Cost-sensitive workloads

Features

  • ✓ Blackwell Ultra (B300) GPUs with 288GB HBM3e each (12-high stacks) at 8TB/s
  • ✓ Up to 15 PFLOPS FP4 per GPU; 1,400W TDP
  • ✓ 72 GPUs + 36 Grace CPUs as one NVLink domain per rack (20TB HBM3e total)
  • ✓ 1.5x FP4 FLOPS and 2x attention performance vs standard Blackwell
  • ✓ Built for AI reasoning and test-time compute scaling
  • ✓ 5th-gen NVLink at 1.8TB/s per GPU; rack-wide NVLink Switch fabric
  • ✓ ConnectX-8 SuperNICs at 800Gb/s per GPU
  • ✓ Liquid-cooled rack-scale AI factory design
