Will it run?

Check a model against our machines before you buy.

Pick the model and quantisation you plan to run. We'll show whether it fits in memory, how much room is left for context, and the throughput to expect. Estimates come from memory bandwidth and are replaced by our own bench figures where we have them.

An NVIDIA-Certified HGX B300 system from Compal, configured as a complete node for a Blackwell Ultra AI factory. Eight Blackwell Ultra GPUs on the HGX B300 NVL8 baseboard share 2.1 TB of HBM3e over fifth-generation NVLink, and each GPU gets its own 800 Gb/s ConnectX-8 SuperNIC port for the cluster fabric, so the server drops straight into an InfiniBand or Spectrum-X rail design.

It is air cooled, which means it can go into a high-density air-cooled hall without a liquid-cooling loop. Plan for a 10U slot and power and airflow for a system in the region of 14 kW.
