Description

The NVIDIA DGX B200 is a complete 10U enterprise AI computing system designed to deliver high-density accelerated computing for demanding artificial intelligence and high-performance computing workloads.

At its core, the system integrates eight NVIDIA Blackwell B200 GPUs, providing a combined 1,440GB of HBM3e GPU memory and up to 64TB/s of aggregate GPU memory bandwidth. The platform delivers up to 144 PFLOPS of FP4 Tensor Core AI performance and up to 72 PFLOPS of FP8 Tensor Core performance, making it suitable for large language models, generative AI, multimodal AI, recommendation systems, scientific computing, and other compute-intensive workloads.

The eight GPUs are interconnected through two fifth-generation NVIDIA NVLink switches, providing up to 14.4TB/s of aggregate NVLink bandwidth. This high-bandwidth GPU fabric enables efficient communication between GPUs and helps DGX B200 operate as a tightly integrated accelerated computing platform rather than as eight independent graphics processors.

The system uses two Intel Xeon Platinum 8570 processors, each providing 56 cores, for a total of 112 CPU cores. The standard configuration includes 2TB of system memory, expandable to 4TB, providing substantial CPU-side capacity for data preprocessing, orchestration, analytics, virtualization, and AI infrastructure workloads.

For high-speed cluster connectivity, DGX B200 incorporates eight NVIDIA ConnectX-7 single-port networking adapters, providing up to 400Gb/s InfiniBand or Ethernet per connection. Two dual-port NVIDIA BlueField-3 DPUs provide additional high-speed networking and infrastructure acceleration for storage, management, and data-center workloads.

Storage includes two 1.92TB NVMe M.2 drives configured as RAID 1 for the operating system and eight 3.84TB NVMe U.2 self-encrypting drives configured as RAID 0 for data/cache workloads. This provides approximately 34.56TB of raw internal NVMe capacity across the documented drive configuration.

DGX B200 is supplied as a complete 10U rackmount system with six 3.3kW power supplies and a maximum system power specification of approximately 14.3kW. It is designed for professional data-center environments with appropriate rack infrastructure, power distribution, cooling, and high-speed network connectivity.

The platform supports NVIDIA’s enterprise AI software ecosystem, including NVIDIA DGX OS / Ubuntu, NVIDIA AI Enterprise, NVIDIA Mission Control, CUDA, and the broader NVIDIA AI software stack, making it suitable for deployment as a foundation for enterprise AI factories and scalable DGX SuperPOD environments.
