Why the NVL costs what it does
Against the other priced NVIDIA H100 variants: the price floor, what a GB-hour and a PFLOP-hour cost, and the specs that explain the gap.
The NVL rents from $2.27 per GPU-hour, 187% more than the SXM5 at $0.79.
The SXM5 is an SXM module, rated at 700 W against 400 W for the NVL card. Hosting a module with that power and interconnect budget costs more than hosting a card, and the hourly rate carries it.
The NVL carries 94 GB against 80 GB, 18% more memory for 187% more per hour; per GB-hour that is $0.024 against $0.010.
Memory bandwidth is 3.9 TB/s on the NVL against 3.4 TB/s on the SXM5, 16% more, which is what sets decode throughput for inference.
32 providers list the SXM5 against 5 for the NVL; a deeper market tends to price lower.
Floors are the cheapest live listing of any pricing type; medians are of each provider's cheapest on-demand rate. Per GB-hour divides the floor by memory, per PFLOP-hour by dense throughput on the family's basis.
