NVIDIA H200 rental

Questions and answers

Answer in brief

Runcrate is our editor’s choice for H200 prices: 26 GPU models from $0.23/hr, billing by the second on most GPUs, and the best developer platform we know.

The questions below are the ones readers bring to H200 Prices, gathered from every entry on the site.

Before you compare H200 prices

Start here. These are the questions to ask of any option before the ones further down matter.

  1. How many GPUs must you take?

    H200s are listed as one, two, four or eight cards. A per-GPU price inside a server of eight means a bill for eight.

  2. Can the listing be started today?

    Each row is marked Start now, No GPUs, Gated, Quota or Not checked, with the date. Only Start now is a price you can use today.

  3. Is the bill by the second, the minute or the hour?

    The unit decides what a short job costs. Ask as well whether the minutes a machine takes to boot are billed.

  4. Is the price on demand?

    Spot machines can be taken back, and reserved prices need a term. This site lists on-demand prices so that one column holds one kind of price.

  5. Does your model fit in 141 GB?

    Weights, context and batch size all take memory. If the fit is tight, price a B200 or a second H200 before you rent.

  6. What does the machine include?

    CPU cores, system memory and local disk differ between providers at the same GPU price. Storage that outlives the machine is a separate line.

  7. On what day was the price read?

    Every price here has its date beside it. Check it before you rely on the figure.

Questions and answers

Runcrate is our editor’s choice for H200 prices: 26 GPU models from $0.23/hr, billing by the second on most GPUs, and the best developer platform we know. Runcrate publishes this site.

It varies by provider, machine size and day. On 12 Nov 2026, listed on-demand H200 prices ran from $3.49 to $10.60 per GPU-hour, with a median of $5.40.

Yes, where a provider lists one. Others rent only servers of eight. The smallest rental is printed beside every price in the table.

Rent the H200 if your model fits in 141 GB with a margin. Price the B200 when it does not, against the cost of a second H200.

Other providers’ prices are listed as text with the date they were read. This is a Runcrate reference, so its links go to Runcrate.

Per GPU on this site, so that machines of different sizes compare. The smallest rental beside each price says how many GPUs you must take.

Providers change them without notice. Each price here carries the date it was read.

It has more memory and moves data through it faster. It is better for you only if your work uses that. If the model fits on an H200, price the H200 first.

Two H200s hold 282 GB between them, close to the 288 GB of one B300. The model must be split across the two cards, which adds overhead. Test it before you choose.

It has more memory and a higher memory bandwidth. This site does not publish speed tests. Run your own job on both and compare the cost of the finished work.

No. It is an older card that still suits models that fit in 80 GB. It is no longer the card that new large-model work is planned around.

Yes. A server is billed whole. If you need four, look for a 4-GPU listing.

Sometimes. It only helps if you use all eight cards for the hours you pay for.

It runs. How many requests it serves at once depends on the memory left after the weights. Measure with your own traffic.

The model’s own documentation states it. Multiply by the bytes per parameter of the format you will load.

Because the machine can be taken back. The discount pays you for that risk, and for the work you lose when it happens.

As short as the provider offers, until you have a month of real usage to judge by.

Up to 720 in a 30-day month, if it never stops. Fewer if you stop it between jobs.

No. It changes how you pay: you top up first and usage draws the balance down.

Only if it is on demand, for the number of GPUs you need, and marked Start now. Otherwise it is a price for something you are not buying.

Because a price that cannot be started is not useful. The table puts what can be started today first.

Because no check of that provider’s stock was made for that day. This site does not guess a label.

It means it could be started on the date shown. Stock changes, so try it yourself before you plan around it.

This site lists rental prices only. For a purchase price, ask a seller of H200 servers for a quote, and ask what the quote includes.

There is no single number. Do the break-even sum with your own quote, your power cost and the rental price on the day.
