NVIDIA H100 PCIe rental price
Frontier AIThe card-form H100. Slower memory and no NVLink fabric, so it rents at a discount to SXM and suits single-GPU inference rather than distributed training.

Buying a NVIDIA H100 80GB PCIe at today’s street price of $26,881 costs the same as 20,153 hours (2.3 years) of renting one at $1.334 an hour. Run it less than that and renting is simply cheaper; run it more and the card starts paying itself back — but this is a floor, not a total cost of ownership. It counts only the purchase price against the rental rate, and ignores power, cooling, rack space, networking, depreciation and the cost of tying up the capital, all of which push the real breakeven further out.

H100-PCIE cluster nodes
Multi-GPU configurations, cheapest per GPU-hour first. For distributed training the interconnect matters as much as the rate — an NVLink or InfiniBand node and the same count of loose PCIe cards are not the same machine.
