Qwen 3.5 397B-A17B — B200 vs MI325X
Head-to-head AI inference benchmark comparison of B200 (NVIDIA Blackwell) and MI325X (AMD CDNA 3) on Qwen 3.5 397B-A17B. 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 →
B200 / MI325X on Qwen 3.5 397B-A17B at 14 tok/s/user: 37074 / 14327 tok/s/chip, $0.01 / $0.02 per million tokens. B200 is 65% cheaper per token; B200 delivers 159% more tok/s/chip.
Around the middle of the 2–48 tok/s/user interactivity band, at 25 tok/s/user on Qwen 3.5 397B-A17B: B200 runs 37074 tok/s/chip at $0.01/M tokens, MI325X runs 10339 at $0.03/M. B200 is 128% cheaper per token; B200 delivers 259% more tok/s/chip.
Setting 37 tok/s/user as the target on Qwen 3.5 397B-A17B, B200 produces 37074 tok/s/chip ($0.01 per million tokens) and MI325X produces 6139 ($0.05). B200 is 284% cheaper per token; B200 delivers 504% more tok/s/chip.

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.
