Head-to-head AI inference benchmark comparison of B200 (NVIDIA Blackwell) and GB200 NVL72 (NVIDIA Blackwell) on MiniMax M3 428B. Latency, throughput, and cost across LLM workloads. Use the chart controls below to switch sequences, precisions, and metrics — same interactions as the main inference chart.
AgentX replays real coding-agent sessions rather than fixed-length prompts, so context grows turn over turn and most of each request is served from cache instead of being recomputed. That turns the comparison into a systems question: KV transfer between nodes, prefix-aware routing, and cache capacity all move the curve alongside raw chip throughput. Fixed-sequence workloads stay the clean baseline for kernel and silicon performance, so the two scenarios answer different questions about the same hardware. Learn more about AgentX →
Near the low end of the 66–432 tok/s/user interactivity band, at 157 tok/s/user on MiniMax M3 428B: B200 runs 34047 tok/s/chip at $0.01/M tokens, GB200 NVL72 runs 21155 at $0.02/M. B200 is 73% cheaper per token; B200 delivers 61% more tok/s/chip.
Setting 249 tok/s/user as the target on MiniMax M3 428B, B200 produces 17054 tok/s/chip ($0.03 per million tokens) and GB200 NVL72 produces 14144 ($0.04). B200 is 30% cheaper per token; B200 delivers 21% more tok/s/chip.
At 341 tok/s/user interactivity on MiniMax M3 428B, B200 delivers 7316 tok/s/chip at $0.07 per million tokens; GB200 NVL72 delivers 7596 tok/s/chip at $0.07. B200 is 4% cheaper per token; GB200 NVL72 delivers 4% more tok/s/chip at this point.

Note: Disaggregated inference configurations (e.g., MoRI SGLang, Dynamo TRTLLM) calculate cost per million tokens per decode chip or per prefill chip, rather than per total chip count. This makes direct token cost comparison with aggregated configs not an apples-to-apples comparison.
Note: Disaggregated inference configurations (e.g., MoRI SGLang, Dynamo TRTLLM) calculate input throughput per decode chip or per prefill chip, rather than per total chip count. This makes direct input throughput comparison with aggregated configs not an apples-to-apples comparison.
