Let L be an ample line bundle on a (geometrically reduced) projective variety X over any complete valued field. Our main result describes the leading asymptotics of the determinant of cohomology of large powers of L, with respect to the supnorm of a continuous metric on the Berkovich analytification of L. As a consequence, we establish in this setting the existence of transfinite diameters and equidistribution of Fekete points, following a strategy going back Berman, Witt Nystr\"om and the first author for complex manifolds. In the non-Archimedean case, our approach relies on a version of the Knudsen-Mumford expansion for the determinant of cohomology on models over the (possibly non-Noetherian) valuation ring, as a replacement for the asymptotic expansion of Bergman kernels in the complex case, and on the reduced fiber theorem, as a replacement for the Bernstein-Markov inequalities. Along the way, a systematic study of spaces of norms and the associated Fubini-Study type metrics is undertaken.
