NVIDIA / Blackwell Ultra

B300
Specs, pricing & compute

B300 is part of NVIDIA Blackwell Ultra. Its large memory footprint makes it a candidate for reasoning inference, long-context workloads and demanding training pipelines.

HARDWARE REFERENCE

Choose around your workload

01

When to choose this GPU

Evaluate B300 when model state, activations or KV cache constrain your current deployment. Use a representative model and concurrency target to decide whether fewer larger GPUs improve total cost.

02

When to consider alternatives

Compare B200 when the workload already fits its memory budget. Choose the GB300 NVL72 capacity path when you need a rack-scale system rather than an individual GPU or server node.

03

Memory planning

288 GB HBM3e is the nominal GPU family reference. Usable capacity and system totals depend on the specific platform; verify the allocated memory in the instance specification.

04

Interconnect and scale

An eight-GPU B300 server and a GB300 NVL72 rack are different products. Confirm the NVLink domain, node count, host architecture and inter-node network for distributed jobs.

05

Software compatibility

Use Blackwell Ultra-compatible images. Low-precision support depends on the model, framework and kernels; validate output quality and memory usage before adopting FP4 or FP8.

FROM CONFIGURATION TO ACCESS

Prepare your compute environment

Operating system & containers

Specify the OS, framework and container image version. Arvica confirms the driver and GPU compatibility before activation. A template name is not a software licence or a guaranteed preinstalled image.

SSH & private access

Save an SSH public key during configuration. Keep the private key on your own device. The verified deployment record provides the actual host and login user once access is ready.

Storage & checkpoints

Separate boot disk, datasets, model weights and checkpoints in your capacity plan. Confirm persistence, backup ownership, attachment rules and deletion behaviour before relying on a volume.

Network & data location

Confirm ingress, egress, public IP access and private networking where required. For regulated or location-sensitive data, specify the required region in advanced settings before submitting.

First connection checklist

Once Arvica supplies verified access, connect using your private key and the exact host/user shown in your instance. Then inspect the allocated GPUs and topology.

ssh -i ~/.ssh/your_key USER@HOST
nvidia-smi
nvidia-smi topo -m

Replace USER and HOST with your own deployment details. These commands inspect an existing machine; they do not provision one.

Size the job before committing

Model memory

Parameter count × bytes per weight estimates weights only. Add KV cache, activations, temporary tensors and framework overhead. Training additionally needs gradients and optimiser state.

Measure useful throughput

Record model version, precision, input/output length, concurrency, latency and error rate together. Compare the cost of a completed job or successful request under the same conditions.

Complete cost

Include all allocated GPUs, runtime, storage, networking, taxes and support. Monthly projections use 730 hours for comparison; your contract defines the billable period and minimum term.

RESERVED / CLUSTERS

Need more capacity?

Define your GPU allocation, interconnect, storage, location and commitment. Arvica prepares a capacity proposal around the workload.

Request capacity

Plan before benchmarking

Model fit and throughput depend on precision, software, batch size, context and system topology. Compare workload estimates rather than an unsupported tokens-per-second promise.

FAQ

How do I choose the GPU count?

Evaluate B300 when model state, activations or KV cache constrain your current deployment. Use a representative model and concurrency target to decide whether fewer larger GPUs improve total cost.

What should I check about memory?

288 GB HBM3e is the nominal GPU family reference. Usable capacity and system totals depend on the specific platform; verify the allocated memory in the instance specification.

What software should I prepare?

Use Blackwell Ultra-compatible images. Low-precision support depends on the model, framework and kernels; validate output quality and memory usage before adopting FP4 or FP8.

What interconnect is included?

An eight-GPU B300 server and a GB300 NVL72 rack are different products. Confirm the NVLink domain, node count, host architecture and inter-node network for distributed jobs.

Can I stop billing by shutting down the operating system?

Do not assume so. Resource allocation, storage and reserved commitments may continue billing. Check the contract and request the appropriate lifecycle action through support.

Is my data retained after termination?

Retention depends on the agreed storage configuration. Export data and confirm backup and volume retention before requesting termination.

Can I deploy immediately?

Current configurations enter Arvica capacity review. Running status is shown only after infrastructure is verified.

Is the reference price my final bill?

No. Your quote defines GPU, storage, network, tax and service charges before you commit.

Can I use a larger cluster?

Use the enterprise capacity path for multi-node networking and reserved allocations.
