As the demands of AI-driven protein design evolve, so does the hardware required to power them. Today, Ariax Bio is excited to announce two major additions to our GPU fleet, targeting both ends of the performance spectrum: the cutting-edge Nvidia B300 and the highly efficient RTX 6000 Pro.
These new options ensure that whether you need maximum throughput for challenging targets or cost-effective inference for routine jobs, you have the right tool for the task. And, as always, without the restrictive contracts of hyperscalers or expensive subscriptions.
Nvidia B300: The New Performance King
For researchers pushing the boundaries of protein design, the B300 represents the pinnacle of current GPU acceleration. Built on the advanced Blackwell architecture, the B300 offers substantial improvements over the B200, making it the ideal choice for time-sensitive projects or extremely large protein targets.
Key advantages of the B300 over the B200 include:
- 55% Faster Compute: 14 PFLOPS of dense FP4 performance (vs. 9 PFLOPS on B200) accelerates AI inference and training.
- Massive Memory: 288 GB of HBM3E memory (vs. 180 GB) allows for significantly larger models and batch sizes.
- Higher Bandwidth: 8 TB/s memory bandwidth ensures data moves as fast as it computes.
Users can now run BindCraft/FreeBindCraft jobs with the B300 immediately. BoltzGen is currently not compatible with the B300, but we anticipate adding support as soon as compatibility updates are released by the Boltz Bio team.
RTX 6000 Pro: Professional Power, Accessible Price
Bridging the gap between consumer cards and data-center flagships, the RTX 6000 Pro offers professional-grade reliability and substantial VRAM comparable to the H-series chips. It is an excellent workhorse for standard inference tasks, providing more memory than the L40S while maintaining a lean price point. It offers compelling value with performance rivaling an H100 at a competitive price.
Updated GPU Lineup
With these additions, Ariax Bio now offers the most comprehensive range of GPUs specialized for protein design:
| GPU Model | Ariax Price | Performance Tier |
|---|---|---|
| B300 | $11.00/hr | Extreme |
| B200 | $10.00/hr | Ultra |
| H200 | $8.00/hr | High |
| H100 | $6.00/hr | High |
| RTX 6000 Pro | $4.00/hr | Mid-High |
| A100 | $3.50/hr | Standard |
| L40 / L40S | $2.50/hr | Entry |
| RTX 6000 Ada | $2.50/hr | Entry |
Zero Commitments, Infinite Scale
As always, these new resources are available with zero minimum commitment. Unlike major cloud providers that often gate their newest hardware behind long-term leases or bulk rental requirements (often 8x GPU minimums), Ariax allows you to spin up a single B300 instance for a few minutes if that’s all your experiment requires. Our subscription-free model puts the world's most powerful GPUs directly in your hands for just the cost of compute, keeping your research competitive with leading labs without the overhead.
The B300 and RTX 6000 Pro are available for selection immediately on the Ariax Bio platform. To start using them, simply select them from the GPU preference list when configuring your next run.
