NVIDIA H100 NVL vs NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Max-Q for local LLMs

0 reports on the NVIDIA H100 NVL and 12 on the NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Max-Q

Which is faster for local LLMs?

Nobody has reported the same model at the same quant on both cards yet, so there's no measured head-to-head. Memory bandwidth, which caps how fast a card can write, is 2.2x higher on the NVIDIA H100 NVL (3,900 GB/s on the NVIDIA H100 NVL, 1,792 on the NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Max-Q). The estimates below compare them on the models people run most.
