Relocatable H100 GPUs Released Under Three-Year Long-Term Agreement at Monthly Rent of 72,000 Yuan Per Unit

SMM learned that a computing power cluster released eight units of relocatable H100 server rental resources, with a monthly rent of 72,000 yuan per unit and a minimum commitment of three years. The relocatable nature means the hardware can be migrated and deployed across periods based on the lessee’s needs, accommodating flexible scheduling for multi-location training tasks. The release of relocatable high-end GPUs under a three-year long-term agreement indicates that core computing power supply is trending toward stability, with sustained demand for long-cycle position locking.

A100 80G Full-System Channel Quoted Price at 1.34 Million Yuan Including Tax Per Unit

SMM learned that a smart computing cloud service provider in a certain computing power channel offered a purchase quote for A100 80G full systems, with a unit price of 1.34 million yuan including tax. The configuration includes DDR4 2T memory, a replaceable CPU, and a three-year warranty, with the quote valid for only three days. The short validity period of the quote reflects strong supplier expectations for price fluctuations.

SMM Analysis: Today’s information reveals structural divergence on the supply side. H100 GPUs were released in the form of a three-year long-term agreement, with the relocatable attribute enhancing deployment flexibility, indicating that core computing power supply is trending toward stability. The purchase quote for A100 full systems was valid for only three days, reflecting strong supplier expectations for price fluctuations. Overall, the high-end computing power market is entering a period of reshaping supply behavior, where both the buyer’s bargaining power and their control over resources are being compressed.

[SMM Computing Power Express] The industry standard intermediary fee for the 4090 series models defaults to an additional 300 yuan per unit per month.
SMM has learned that a pricing convention has also been established for intermediary channels in computing power leasing for entry-level models—an intermediary fee of about 300 yuan per machine per month, which is generally applicable to the 4090 series (e.g., RTX 4090). As a channel facilitation cost, it is added on top of the base rental. SMM believes that the intermediary fee for entry-level models is significantly lower than that for high-end models, reflecting ample supply of low and mid-end computing power and sufficient channel competition.

SMM has learned that a default industry practice has gradually emerged in the intermediary channel for computing power leasing—a monthly intermediary fee of approximately 1,000 yuan per machine, a rule that is generally applied to H-series models (e.g., H100/H200). The intermediary fee, as a channel matchmaking cost, is added on top of the base rent. SMM believes that the solidification of intermediary fees for high-end H-series models will raise lessees' overall computing costs and also reflects the channel scarcity premium for top-tier models.

SMM learned that a computing cluster in South China released the rental resources of 2 IB-networked A100 80G servers, with a monthly rent of 35,000 yuan per unit and a minimum one-year lease (long-term agreement). These resources are aimed at high-bandwidth interconnection needs such as large model training, and IB networking can support low-latency communication for multi-machine distributed training. SMM believes that the release of a small batch of high-end GPUs in the form of a long-term agreement reflects the resilience of training computing power demand in South China.
