NVIDIA H100 Tensor Core GPU
The NVIDIA H100 Tensor Core GPU delivers exceptional performance, scalability, and security for every workload. H100 uses breakthrough innovations based on the NVIDIA Hopper™ architecture to deliver industry-leading conversational AI, speeding up large language models (LLMs) by 30X. H100 also includes a dedicated Transformer Engine to solve trillion-parameter language models.
H100 features fourth-generation Tensor Cores and a Transformer Engine with FP8 precision that provides up to 4X faster training over the prior generation for GPT-3 (175B) models. The combination of fourth-generation NVLink, which offers 900 gigabytes per second (GB/s) of GPU-to-GPU interconnect; NDR Quantum-2 InfiniBand networking, which accelerates communication by every GPU across nodes; PCIe Gen5; and NVIDIA Magnum IO™ software delivers efficient scalability from small enterprise systems to massive, unified GPU clusters.
Deploying H100 GPUs at data center scale delivers outstanding performance and brings the next generation of exascale high-performance computing (HPC) and trillion-parameter AI within the reach of all researchers.
The NVIDIA data center platform consistently delivers performance gains beyond Moore’s law. And H100’s new breakthrough AI capabilities further amplify the power of HPC+AI to accelerate time to discovery for scientists and researchers working on solving the world’s most important challenges.
H100 triples the floating-point operations per second (FLOPS) of double-precision Tensor Cores, delivering 60 teraflops of FP64 computing for HPC. AI-fused HPC applications can also leverage H100’s TF32 precision to achieve one petaflop of throughput for single-precision matrix-multiply operations, with zero code changes.
H100 also features new DPX instructions that deliver 7X higher performance over A100 and 40X speedups over CPUs on dynamic programming algorithms such as Smith-Waterman for DNA sequence alignment and protein alignment for protein structure prediction.
