Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-V3/issues/28

NVLink offers a bandwidth of 160 GB/s, roughly 3.2 times that of IB (50 GB/s).

May I know why the bandwidth of NVLink on H800 is 160GB/s, instead of 400GB/s?

Thanks.

400GB/s 是双向理论值,160GB/s 是我们的单向实测

谢谢。那IB带宽50GB/s也是单向实测值吗?

Could I get the nccl test snapshot (both algorithm and bus bandwidth) of all to all test with multiple nodes ? If the bandwidth data (160 GB/s) is from nccl-test, it hardly to be true. H800 should have the same IB/NCCL performance with H100 (450-490 GB/s) (NV SHARP)

同问。IB connect X-8 单向 400Gb/s (50GB/s)像是用的理论值。 @mowentian

可以分享一下您的单向实测脚本吗?
