Rent a dedicated NVIDIA H100 SXM server for $1,249 a month
The H100 SXM is the GPU the current generation of language models was trained on: 80 GB of HBM3 at 3.35 TB/s, 989 TFLOPS of dense FP16 tensor compute, FP8 through the Transformer Engine and 900 GB/s of NVLink between GPUs. This is the SXM5 part — not the slower PCIe card — delivered as a dedicated bare-metal server with its own 24 vCPU, 256 GB of RAM and 3 TB of NVMe, at one flat monthly price.

Specification
NVIDIA H100 SXM server specifications
One dedicated machine, sized around the GPU. Nothing is shared, nothing is metered, and every line below is included in the monthly price.
Why teams rent the H100 here
- SXM5, not PCIe. Full 3.35 TB/s HBM3 and a 700 W power budget, versus 2 TB/s of HBM2e and 350 W on the PCIe card that shares the name.
- FP8 Transformer Engine. Mixed FP8/FP16 training and FP8 inference with automatic scaling — the format every modern LLM stack targets first.
- NVLink 4 at 900 GB/s. Tensor parallelism across the GPUs of a node without the PCIe bottleneck; 8× H100 nodes with InfiniBand are on the clusters page.
- One flat invoice. $1,249 a month covers the GPU, the host, the NVMe, 20 TB of transfer and 24/7 support — the same number every month, fixed for your term.
Below about 373 hours of use a month, an hourly provider is the cheaper way to run this GPU. Above it — and a machine that trains, serves or renders is above it — the monthly rate wins, and the gap is the $1,197 shown above.

Rates are each provider's standard on-demand tier for the H100 — not spot, preemptible or community hardware — as printed on their pricing page on 19 September 2026; each row links to the full comparison with its source. Where a provider is cheaper than us for a full month, the row says so. Method and caveats: GPU cloud alternatives.
Workloads
What people run on an H100
Training & fine-tuning — and the three jobs below are where a dedicated H100 at a flat monthly price earns its keep.
-
Training and fine-tuning
Full fine-tunes of 7B–13B models on one GPU, 70B on an 8-GPU node with FSDP or DeepSpeed, checkpoints on local NVMe.
-
Production inference
FP8 serving of models up to about 35B on one GPU with vLLM or TensorRT-LLM, or 70B across two, at a flat cost that does not change with traffic.
-
Diffusion and video generation
SDXL, FLUX and video models at batch, where HBM bandwidth — not CUDA cores — sets the frames per second.
Is the H100 the right GPU for you?
The H100 SXM is the default choice for training and fine-tuning anything up to 70B parameters and for FP8 inference of models that fit in 80 GB. Take the H200 if inference is bandwidth- or memory-bound, and the A100 if the workload has no use for FP8 and budget matters more than speed.
Recommended for model training — the sizing guide there shows what fits in 80 GB HBM3.
H100 rental: questions answered
How much does it cost to rent an H100 server?
$1,249 a month, flat, for a dedicated NVIDIA H100 SXM server with 24 vCPU · 256 GB RAM · 3 TB NVMe and a 25 Gbps uplink — $1.71 per hour effective over 730 hours. A 3-, 6- or 12-month term takes 5%, 10% or 15% off: $1,187, $1,124 or $1,062 a month. The market-median on-demand rate for the same GPU is $3.35 per hour, about $2,446 for a full month.
Is the H100 in stock right now?
Yes. 14 of the current batch of 64 were unallocated at the last stock update (18 September 2026). Provisioning is automated: your server is imaged, secured with your SSH key and handed over in under 10 minutes after your payment confirms. The next batch is due Oct 6.
What is included with a H100 server?
Everything on the pricing table: the GPU, 24 vCPU · 256 GB RAM · 3 TB NVMe, a 25 Gbps uplink with 20 TB of outbound transfer, a dedicated public IPv4 and a /64 IPv6 block, DDoS protection, root access and Ubuntu 24.04 with the NVIDIA driver, CUDA 12 and Docker — or PyTorch, vLLM, Kubernetes images at checkout. Hardware replacement within 4 hours and a 99.9% uptime SLA are part of the contract.
Is this the H100 SXM or the H100 PCIe?
SXM5. The PCIe version carries HBM2e at 2 TB/s, a 350 W power limit and no NVLink in most builds; the SXM part has 3.35 TB/s of HBM3, 700 W and 900 GB/s of NVLink, and is what the published benchmarks refer to. Our price is for the SXM part, in a dedicated server.
Can I rent several H100s or a full 8-GPU node?
Yes: order 1, 2, 4 or 8 GPUs at once, subject to the units left in the batch, on the same monthly terms. The 8× H100 node — NVLink between the GPUs, 3.2 Tb/s InfiniBand, NVLink 4 · 3.2 Tb/s InfiniBand · 192 vCPU · 2 TB RAM · 30 TB NVMe — is priced separately at $7,990 a month on the clusters page.
Do I need KYC or a card to rent it?
No. An email address is all we ask for. You fund a prepaid balance in Bitcoin, Ether or USDT (ERC-20 or TRC-20); the first invoice settles from it and monthly renewals charge to it automatically. No ID document, no card, no bank transfer.
