[SMM Computing Power Express] Transparent 4090 Rental Prices, Monthly Rent Below 7,000, Inventory Rights Risk

Published: Aug 27, 2026 15:36
SMM has learned that RTX 4090 server rental transaction prices have become relatively transparent. Low-price resources below 7,000 yuan/month warrant caution, as they may involve risks such as unclear ownership and goods under supervision. A certain channel dealer had previously offered such resources, but the test failed, possibly due to ownership issues or because the goods were under supervision, resulting in low market acceptance. SMM believes that the transparent monthly rental range for the standard RTX 4090 is approximately 7,100–7,300 yuan, and low prices often point to ownership defects; lessees should verify the ownership and equipment status.

[SMM Computing Power Flash News] RTX 4090 Full-Machine Rental Resources Peak, Potential Lessees Switch to Purchasing
SMM has learned that previously, for hundreds of RTX 4090 8-GPU server rental resources in the market, potential lessees have already shown a willingness to purchase (buy out) the servers outright rather than simply renewing the lease. This shift reflects that the supply of RTX 4090 server rentals is approaching a peak, with a growing trend downstream of switching from "leasing" to "buying." SMM believes that the monthly rental for a 4090 server has stabilized within a transparent range of 7,100–7,300 yuan, and the lessees' move to buy out may be driven by the economics of long-term ownership, accelerating the digestion of existing server positions.

[SMM Computing Power Flash] 5 Pro6000 Bare-Metal Units for Lease in East China, Monthly Rent: 50,000 Yuan
SMM learned that a resource provider in east China released approximately 5 Pro6000 units for lease, with a bare-metal quote of 50,000 yuan per unit per month, a one-year minimum lease term, located in a partner data center and cannot be relocated. The counterparty revealed that the channel price for Pro6000 from a large internet enterprise is 55,000 yuan per unit per month, 10% higher than its own quote. SMM believes that the bare-metal price of Pro6000 (50,000 yuan per unit per month) is close to the previous H20 complete machine leasing price, and whether the quote includes value-added services needs to be confirmed by inquiry.

[SMM Computing Power Flash] South China: 40 RTX 4090 GPUs for half-year fixed-term lease, monthly rent 7,300 yuan
SMM learned that a lease contract for 40 RTX 4090 eight-card servers was signed in South China. The closed contract has a six-month term, with a monthly rent of 7,300 yuan per unit, and delivery was completed within the week. Compared to recent east China direct-supply 4090 (7,100 yuan/month, 6–12 months) and central China short-term rental (7,200 yuan/month), the monthly rent for the standard 24GB models stabilized in the 7,100–7,300 yuan range. SMM believes that leasing 4090s with closed, half-year locked pricing has resulted in a highly convergent price band, reflecting ample supply of consumer-grade cards and a lease structure trending toward medium- to long-term lock-in.
