NVIDIA H100 rental

How to choose

Answer in brief

Choose in the order of the checklist.

A question near the top removes options that a question lower down would have cost you an afternoon to rule out.

In 2026 the H100 is the older card: the H200, B200 and B300 are the newer ones. On 12 Nov 2026, the median listed price per GPU-hour was $3.90 for the H100, $5.40 for the H200, $8.34 for the B200 and $9.50 for the B300. Price the H100 beside them, then check the smallest rental and whether it can be started today.

The questions, in order

  1. Does your model fit in 80 GB?

    If it does not, you need more than one H100 or a newer card. Compare the total for both before you rent.

  2. Have you priced the newer cards?

    The H200, B200 and B300 hold more on one card. The tables here show their prices beside the H100’s, read on the same day.

  3. How many H100s come with the price?

    H100s are listed as one, two, four or eight cards. A per-GPU figure inside a machine of eight is one eighth of the bill.

  4. What unit is the bill in?

    By the second, the minute or the hour. Ask too whether the time a machine spends booting is billed.

  5. Is it an on-demand price?

    Spot machines can be taken back and reserved prices need a term. Neither compares with an on-demand figure.

  6. Can you start it today?

    Each row is labelled Start now, No GPUs, Gated, Quota or Not checked, with the date of the check.

When two options look the same

Two options that pass every question are rarely equal. Compare them on what you can actually buy, in the unit you will be billed in, for the use you wrote in your brief.

Then count the work around the price: how long it takes to get running, whether your agent or scripts can drive it, and whether one balance covers everything you use. That work is paid for in hours, not on the price page.
