Inventec P5800G7 vs QCT QuantaGrid D75L-3U

Both are built on the NVIDIA HGX B300 8-GPU baseboard, so their accelerator performance is identical rather than merely similar. The choice between them is chassis, cooling, expansion and supplier, not FLOPS.

Inventec P5800G7

Inventec's densest Blackwell Ultra node: the same eight-accelerator HGX B300 NVL8 baseboard as its 10U air-cooled sibling, folded into 5U at 448 by 219.5 by 875 mm by moving to liquid cooling. The fan count tells the story, four 80 mm GPU fans against fifteen in the air-cooled machine. East-west networking is eight 800Gb OSFP connectors driven by NVIDIA ConnectX-8 SuperNICs, one per accelerator, and hosts are Intel Xeon 6700 series with E-cores or 6700 and 6500 series with P-cores. Power is 3,300 W 54 V supplies in 4+1 or 4+2 redundancy with a 2,000 W 12 V host plane. This is the only Inventec node whose GPU count is stated on the page, in the NVL8 designation itself. No throughput, memory or system power figure is published.

QCT QuantaGrid D75L-3U

QCT's density play: the same NVIDIA HGX B300 8-GPU baseboard as its 10U sibling, compressed into 3U by liquid cooling and designed for the NVIDIA MGX rack rather than a standalone chassis. It takes power from a 1400A busbar and rack power shelves instead of its own supplies, which is why no power figure appears here at all, and supports DC-SCM. Fifth-generation NVLink runs at 1.8 TB/s, and eight onboard ConnectX-8 SuperNICs handle east-west traffic at up to 800Gb/s. Hosting is two Intel Xeon 6700 P-core processors at up to 350 W. QCT states 2.3 TB of HBM3e per system, which is eight B300 modules at 288 GB apiece; note NVIDIA quotes 2.1 TB for the same baseboard, and this entry keeps QCT's figure since QCT is the one publishing it. No throughput figure is given for this model.
