SMM learned that during a computing power resource exchange on July 28, a supplier quoted 128 high-end computing units, not to be split, with a delivery period of 2-3 weeks at 13.2 million yuan per unit, and payment terms of 25% down payment with a letter of guarantee. A relevant personnel from an operator questioned the high quote, stating that a nearby investor had recently acquired 16 units of the same model as 4-week futures at just over 10 million yuan per unit. The supplier responded that nowadays, if a buyer hesitates even slightly, the supply is immediately snatched away, and the same batch of goods is being sought after and contacted by multiple parties. The difference of over 3 million yuan per unit between the quoted price and the market feedback on the transaction price for the same batch reflects the low transparency of quotes in the high-end computing power futures market.

[SMM Hashrate Midday Review] 4090 lowest price in Pearl River Delta has continued to drop, new resource release lowers the lower bound.
The lowest monthly rent for 4090 in the Pearl River Delta dropped to 7,200 yuan (down 1.37%), and the lowest card hour dropped to 1.25 yuan (down 1.57%). The reason was the release of new low-cost resources and the invalidation of previous quotes, while other prices remained unchanged. The 4090 is primarily used for local enterprise inference, and due to diversion by workstation-level substitutes and the continuous influx of new resources, the price center has shifted downward. Low-price downward probing may still continue, benefiting computing power buyers.

SMM August 24 news: About 115 idle RTX 4090 servers in east China are available for lease, directly from the resource owner, with a monthly rent of 7,100 yuan per unit. Options include a lease term of 6-12 months, a minimum of 32 units, and a deposit of one month's rent plus one month's payment. Each machine features 8×4090 24G, dual Xeon 8352V, and 512GB DDR4. SMM believes that the rent of 7,100 yuan per unit with flexible splitting is competitive in both price and minimum lease threshold.

[SMM Computing Power Express] Computing Power Demand Side Multi-Point Boosting: 950 Nodes Going Online in Batches
SMM learned that signals from the computing power demand side are intense: a computing-electricity collaboration project of a power generation enterprise and the expansion of a smart computing center of an operator are progressing steadily, while 950 nodes are being launched in batches (Q3 for cloud service providers, Q4 for operators), with supporting node demands from leading internet enterprises released simultaneously. SMM believes that the diversified growth on the demand side indicates that computing power construction has entered a stage of multi-subject collaborative volume release, which will support medium and long-term computing power leasing demand.
