Qwen 3.5 397B-A17B — GB200 NVL72 vs MI355X

Head-to-head AI inference benchmark comparison of GB200 NVL72 (NVIDIA Blackwell) and MI355X (AMD CDNA 4) 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 →

At 101 tok/s/user on Qwen 3.5 397B-A17B, MI355X delivers 38865 tok/s/chip at $0.01 per million tokens; GB200 NVL72 hasn't been benchmarked at this target.

MI355X hits 20776 tok/s/chip for $0.02 per million tokens at 172 tok/s/user on Qwen 3.5 397B-A17B. No GB200 NVL72 data at this operating point.

MI355X: 6192 tok/s/chip, $0.07 per million tokens at 243 tok/s/user on Qwen 3.5 397B-A17B. GB200 NVL72 is unmeasured here. (Numbers reflect the default agentic-traces · fp8 selection for this URL — table and chart below update if you change sequence, precision, or model in the controls.)
