CDNA 3
AMD Instinct MI300X
wins
4
The AMD MI300X leads all GPUs on memory capacity (192GB HBM3) and bandwidth (5.3 TB/s), making it exceptional for serving very large language models that don't fit on H100.

Power efficiency analysis
TFLOPS/watt and GB/s/watt — critical for data center TCO
AMD Instinct MI300X
NVIDIA H200 141GB
TFLOPS/watt measures compute efficiency — how much AI throughput you get per watt of power consumed. For data centers with PUE of 1.2–1.5, a 10% improvement in TFLOPS/watt translates directly to lower electricity costs and cooling requirements. GB/s/watt measures memory bandwidth efficiency, which is the binding constraint for memory-bound LLM inference workloads.
