Which is cheaper per hour, H100 SXM or B200?
H100 SXM is cheaper. It settles at $2.86 per GPU-hour against $7.56 for the B200 as of October 6, 2026, a gap of $4.70 per GPU-hour, $112.80 per GPU-day, or about $3384.00 per GPU over a 30-day month.
How has the B200 premium over H100 SXM moved over 30 days?
Thirty days earlier the B200 settled at $6.64 and the H100 SXM at $3.07, a spread of $3.57 per GPU-hour. As of October 6, 2026 it is $4.70, so the B200 premium has widened by $1.13.
Which is cheaper per GB of memory capacity, H100 SXM or B200?
H100 SXM is cheaper per GB. Dividing the settled hourly price by on-board memory, the B200 (180 GB HBM3e) costs $0.0420 per GB of capacity per hour and the H100 SXM (80 GB HBM3) $0.0357, as of October 6, 2026. Capacity only: memory type and bandwidth differ (HBM2e, HBM3, HBM3e), so this is not a throughput comparison.
When does the B200 pay off over the H100 SXM?
At current settles the B200 costs 2.6× the H100 SXM per hour, so it pays off only on work where it gets through more than 2.6× as much per hour as the H100 SXM; below that, the H100 SXM finishes the same job for less. The B200 also carries 2.3× the memory (180 GB HBM3e against 80 GB HBM3); where memory capacity rather than GPU count sets the job size, compare cost per job, not per GPU-hour. Ornn publishes prices, not benchmarks: test the throughput ratio on your own workload.
Where can I rent H100 SXM or B200 GPUs?
Ornn Compute (compute.ornn.com) reserves dedicated NVIDIA H100 SXM and NVIDIA B200 capacity across verified neocloud providers, priced against the same settled OCPI-H100 and OCPI-B200 indices published on this page, with access in minutes. Reservations can be resold on a secondary market if requirements change, so unused capacity is recoverable rather than sunk. Ornn both prices compute and rents it.
