H100 SXM pricing
What the NVIDIA H100 SXM costs right now: 21 tracked on-demand rates, the spread between them, the used market, and what the hourly number turns into when you own the card instead.
The headline on H100 SXM pricing is the spread: the same card costs 3.1x more at the top of the market than at the bottom. The floor comes from Hyperstack (a GPU-first neocloud), the ceiling from GCP, where you are paying for the ecosystem around the GPU as much as the silicon. Every rate below is an on-demand list price; commit to reserved or spot capacity and 30-70% comes off. The workhorse of the AI boom. Still the most widely available serious training and inference GPU.
