NVIDIA Vera Rubin benchmarks show 30x throughput boost for agent workloads
Scobleizer · x · 2026-08-25
NVIDIA released the first on-silicon performance benchmarks for the Vera Rubin architecture specifically measured on agentic workloads. Using the SemiAnalysis AgentX workload and the DeepSeek V4 Pro model, the chip delivers up to 30x higher throughput per megawatt and 35x lower token costs compared to the GB300 NVL72. This highlights the distinct load profiles of agents, which involve context growth across hundreds of steps and require dedicated hardware/software optimizations.
