NVIDIA Data Center GPU A800 PCIe 80GB
The NVIDIA A800 PCIe 80GB is an enterprise AI accelerator based on the Ampere GA100 architecture, designed as a compliant alternative to the A100 for Chinese enterprise customers under late-2022 US export rules. It offers the same 80GB HBM2e memory capacity and 2.0 TB/s memory bandwidth as the standard A100 PCIe, but limits inter-GPU NVLink bandwidth to 400 GB/s (from 600 GB/s). It retains multi-instance GPU (MIG) support for up to 7 partitions, 3rd-generation Tensor Cores with TF32 precision, and dual-slot PCIe compatibility. On the secondary market, it is heavily traded for LLM inference and private enterprise training. Buyers should test HBM2e memory health and verify passive airflow cooling.

Buying a used A800 PCIe 80GB: what to check
Inspect HBM2e memory for ECC error counts, verify passive cooling airflow compliance (250 CFM required), inspect PCIe edge connector gold fingers, and ensure authentic vendor VBIOS.
FAQ
What is the difference between the A800 and the A100?
The A800 has identical compute cores and 80GB HBM2e memory, but restricts NVLink bandwidth to 400 GB/s to comply with export controls.
Does the A800 PCIe support Multi-Instance GPU (MIG)?
Yes, it supports up to 7 independent hardware MIG partitions just like the standard A100.
What card succeeded the A800 in China?
The NVIDIA L20 and H20 succeeded the A800 following further export revisions.
