H100 SXM5 80GB is a datacenter accelerator from NVIDIA with 80 GB of VRAM and 3,350 GB/s of memory bandwidth and 900 GB/s of NVLink, typically around $2.5/hr on cloud rental. It is aimed at production LLM serving.
28 models in the tokcalc catalog fit on one H100 SXM5 80GB, up to GPT-OSS 120B (MoE) (117B params) at awq4. Below that, throughput and cost per million tokens improve as the model gets smaller.
At fp8 with 8 concurrent users, 2× H100 SXM5 80GB serves 1888 tokens/sec aggregate (78.65 tok/s per stream), with a 1.21 s time to first token. That works out to $0.7358 per 1M output tokens.
Around $2.5/hr for on-demand cloud rental (a typical 2025–2026 estimate across RunPod, Lambda, Modal, AWS, GCP and similar providers). Actual pricing varies by region, commitment, and spot availability — the Build vs Buy tab in the calculator pulls live quotes from several providers.
Memory bandwidth drives decode speed and VRAM drives capacity. H100 SXM5 80GB has 3,350 GB/s of bandwidth and 80 GB of VRAM, plus 990 TFLOPS of dense FP16/BF16 compute. The comparison table on this page ranks every accelerator in the catalog on the same reference workload so you can see where it lands.
Pick your model, context length, and concurrency — the calculator computes the rest with the same formulas.
