The H100 SXM posted a 7.0% week-over-week increase in median hourly rental rates, rising from $2.99 to $3.20, according to AIMC observations. That move sits against a backdrop of meaningful dispersion: rates across individual marketplaces do not converge on a single figure but instead span a range that institutional buyers need to account for when sourcing capacity. The analysis that follows breaks down where H100 SXM is currently priced on a per-marketplace basis, how wide the spread between the lowest and highest observed rates has become, and how each venue's current figures compare to the prior week. The data reflects spot listings captured during the measurement window and does not adjust for contract terms or reserved-instance structures.

Spread Analysis
Across the 21 marketplaces carrying H100 SXM this week, the observed median ranged from $1.89/hr at upcloud to $10.00/hr at huggingface — a 5.3x spread between the lowest and highest median. Intra-SKU spreads of this magnitude reflect differences in commitment terms, regional availability, and how aggressively each provider is positioning the same hardware, rather than differences in the silicon itself. AIMC reports each marketplace's observed median independently and does not blend them into a single figure that would mask this dispersion — the spread itself is part of what the market is telling you.
Observation depth for H100 SXM this week totaled 448 listings across 21 marketplaces. Marketplaces with deeper listing counts contribute more stable medians; those represented by a single listing are shown for completeness but carry correspondingly less weight in interpreting where H100 SXM is clearing.
What This Means
The most striking feature of this week's H100 SXM data is not the headline number but the range sitting beneath it. Ai Mining Co. tracked 21 distinct marketplace listings for this SKU, and the median hourly rates spanning those venues ran from $1.89 on Upcloud to $10.00 on Hugging Face — a 5.3x spread across a single piece of hardware within a single week. The week-over-week median moved upward by 7.0%, which is notable on its own, but that figure flattens what the dispersion reveals: the H100 SXM is not trading in anything resembling a unified market. Prices of this width across 21 sources suggest that buyers are encountering meaningfully different conditions depending on where they transact — differences that may reflect commitment term structures, regional infrastructure availability, or the degree to which a given provider has positioned this GPU as a premium or commodity offering. AIMC's data shows no single venue dominating the mid-range, which itself suggests the market for this SKU remains fragmented rather than consolidating around a consensus price.
What the spread implies about individual marketplace behavior warrants careful reading. Upcloud's $1.89 median sits so far below the field that it almost certainly reflects a structurally different access model — possibly longer reservation windows, regional capacity conditions, or a deliberate entry-level positioning strategy — though the data alone cannot confirm which. Hugging Face's $10.00 median at the opposite end places it more than five times higher, which may correspond to on-demand flexibility, integrated tooling, or audience-specific pricing, again without the data confirming causation. The venues in between — the majority of the 21 tracked — cluster in ways that reward close reading of the full distribution rather than the median alone. That distribution, not any single data point, is where the structural character of this SKU's market actually lives.
One week of data describes a snapshot, not a trend, and that constraint matters here. The 7.0% week-over-week move and the 5.3x dispersion are observations about a specific moment in a market that can shift as capacity comes online, provider strategies adjust, or demand patterns change. What this week's data establishes clearly is that H100 SXM pricing is highly dependent on marketplace selection, that no single venue defines the market, and that the gap between the cheapest and most expensive observed median is wide enough to be commercially significant for any organization treating these figures as reference points.
