Show HN: The cheapest GPU cloud – H100s at $2.04/HR, H200s at $3/HR compute.cheap

This company would be more trustworthy if it listed an HQ, about page, history founder info, or anything...

Seems fraudulent. Who’s the operator/owner?

If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

So its ok for Anthropic and OpenAI to run inference at a loss, but criminal when others do it? :-)

For such a service it's legitimate to ask where those GPUs are working. Where's the data center?

otterley12 days ago

It's more about where your money is going, since it's a prepaid offering.

I like thundercompute for my personal stuff, especially a A6000 for 0.35/h when i want to do some training for example.

$1.09/GPU/hr for a H100!!

freakynit13 days ago

Their 6000 is never available.. been waiting for over 1 month now... it's always out of stock...

calgoo13 days ago

Its available right now for me, but yes i have had a few days where i have used the L40 @0.79 if i require the VRAM as the 6000 is unavailable.

vast.ai has H100 at 1.93/h, H200 at 3.8/h but no 2500$ minimum. It's also possible to get a DPA with them, see where the machine is, this feels a bit comparatively dodgy

Curious, how do services like this stay compliant with export controls on these devices? I assume a credit card is all I need to access these things?

adobrawy13 days ago

They do not export devices, they export services.

dannyw13 days ago

Precisely. BIS does not consider cloud compute services to be exports.

There are some rules around when you knowingly know that a customer is military or WMD, and you obviously can’t supply services to someone on the entity list; but KYC-through-credit card kinda works at small scale.

Not the cheapest. Many providers have spot H100s for $8-12, and H200s for slightly less than the above prices

duttish13 days ago

Do you mean $8-12 per day? Otherwise I'm confused how it's cheaper.

zaptrem12 days ago

Per hour per 8x node (so $1-1.25 per hour per gpu)

aesthesia13 days ago

I assume these are prices for 8x nodes.

localtoast213 days ago

2.038 < 8

zaptrem12 days ago

Per hour per 8x node (so $1-1.25 per hour per gpu)

If interested in compute, please let me know, got capacity at market.
