HOW TO CHOOSE
RTX PRO 6000 vs H100 NVL
Similar single-card serving footprint (94-96 GB). H100 NVL has HBM bandwidth (3.9 TB/s); the PRO 6000 costs less per hour on most of the panel. Bandwidth-bound decoding favors the NVL.
Workload fit
H100 NVL: 70b-class serving, long-context inference, fine-tuning. RTX PRO 6000: 70b-class single-card inference, fine-tuning, workstation ai + graphics.
