Hardware notes
Do not compare directly with a verified SXM or PCIe offer.
H200 NVL is a distinct PCIe variant and is not merged with SXM.
Performance for your model
Not benchmarked. Test your precision, batch size, sequence length and runtime.

More memory is useful when your workload needs it.
It does not by itself prove a lower monthly cost, higher tokens per second or a better result. Include model memory, context, batch size and measured performance in your decision.
