SMM has learned that the current monthly rental floor price for RTX 4090 8-card servers has dropped to 6,900 yuan per server. Some channels in Shanghai, eager to lease out to avoid idle periods, have quoted this price, while previous transaction prices were around 7,000 yuan per server. Intermediary quoted prices generally range from 7,600 to 8,000 yuan per server, with intermediary fees of about 200 yuan per server per month and a single-tier markup of about 700 to 800 yuan. A platform under a publicly listed firm with cross-sector computing business quotes 7,200 yuan per server for the 512M memory version, while state-owned enterprise channels quote 7,500 yuan per server, though internal long-term agreements may be negotiated to below 7,000 yuan. In the 4090 rental market, intermediary layers are thick; the price spread between first-hand self-operated data center quotes and intermediary listing prices reaches 700 to 1,100 yuan per server. Buyers directly connecting with first-hand resources can significantly reduce costs.
