Qwen 3.8 Flash Next 176B-A6B — H100 vs Vera Rubin NVL72 Performance per Dollar
Cost per million tokens of H100 (NVIDIA Hopper) versus Vera Rubin NVL72 (NVIDIA Vera Rubin) on Qwen 3.8 Flash Next 176B-A6B. Large-hyperscaler-volume ownership TCO normalized by total tokens — performance per dollar across LLM workloads. Pick the more cost-efficient SKU at every target interactivity level. 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 →
At 46 tok/s/user on Qwen 3.8 Flash Next 176B-A6B, H100 comes in at $0.07 per million tokens. Vera Rubin NVL72 hasn't been benchmarked at this operating point.
Only H100 has cost data at 77 tok/s/user on Qwen 3.8 Flash Next 176B-A6B — $0.07 per million tokens. Vera Rubin NVL72 is unmeasured at this target.
H100 costs $0.07 per million tokens at 108 tok/s/user on Qwen 3.8 Flash Next 176B-A6B; we have no Vera Rubin NVL72 benchmark data at this exact target.
