Evidence
NVIDIA HGX Platform page, HGX B200 row ("8x NVIDIA Blackwell SXM", footnote 4: "HGX B300 and HGX B200 shipping now"). FP16/BF16 Tensor Core is listed as 36 PFLOPS for the 8-GPU board. Footnote 2: dense is half the sparse spec. Dense board total is therefore 18 PFLOPS; per chip 18 / 8 = 2.25 PFLOPS. Total memory 1.4 TB => 180 GB HBM3E per SXM.
