[SMM Computing Power Flash] Pro 6000 demand cools; 32 new machines in east China not yet listed, awaiting customers
SMM has learned that a capital provider in east China has completed the construction and installation of 32 Pro 6000 eight-GPU full servers, but the units have not yet been put on racks, and no leasing clients have been secured. SMM previously collected a monthly rental quote of 36,000–37,000 yuan per unit per month for the Pro 6000. Recently, signs have also emerged of idle order circulation, with 32 units of the same scale being offered for lease while demand is simultaneously listed. Upstream delivery default risk is rising at the same time. SMM believes that this model uses GDDR7 memory rather than HBM, making it less suitable for training scenarios and leaving its positioning unclear. Coupled with leading cloud vendors bringing similar resources online in batches in September, later-stage demand and capacity face the risk of being squeezed.
