Own your GPUs instead of renting them
B300, B200, H200, or RTX PRO 6000 servers in your company’s name, hosted in a U.S. data center and run for you.
When owning beats renting
Steady usage
If your GPUs stay busy for two years or more, owning usually costs less than renting.
A predictable cost
A one-time purchase and a fixed data center contract. No surprise rate changes.
Dedicated hardware
No one else runs on your servers, which makes customer security reviews easier.
Resale value
When you upgrade, you can sell or rent out the old servers.
When to keep renting
If your usage is spiky or you only need GPUs for a few months, keep renting. We’ll tell you on the first call if owning doesn’t make sense yet. Compare both for your setup in the rent vs own calculator, or read the math on owning vs renting.
Which GPU for which job
- B300
- 288 GB per GPU, for large models and training. Ballpark $550-650K per server. More on B300
- B200
- 180 GB per GPU, good value for inference. Ballpark $450-500K. More on B200
- H200
- 141 GB per GPU, lower power and easy to get. Ballpark $340K. More on H200
- RTX PRO 6000
- 96 GB per GPU, for inference and fine-tuning at the lowest cost. Ballpark $100-150K. More on RTX PRO 6000

What it costs
We take no cut of your hardware or data center. Brokers often earn a percentage of what you spend. We charge flat fees, so a better price only saves you money.

Servers, networking, and shipping. Paid to the vendor, with nothing added.
Colocation
Space, power, and cooling, usually on a 3-year contract. Paid to the data center.
Paid to us, flat

$25K for 1-7 servers. Half at signing, half when live. Custom pricing for 8 or more.
Management fee
From $1K a month per 4 servers. Covers monitoring, repairs, and warranty claims.
Want a customer for the GPUs? We charge 2.5% of the contract, only if it signs.
Ballpark: one B300 server (8 GPUs)
- The server
- $550-650K
- Shipping
- $2,500
- Data center
- $4-5K a month
- Our setup fee
- $25K
- Our management fee
- $1K a month
A cluster also needs networking, about $50-70K per server.
Don’t want to pay for the hardware all at once?
- Put in half yourself, and we can usually introduce a lender for the other half.
- Lenders want to see cash or funding of 1.5x the hardware cost. For a $550K server, you put in $275K, the lender covers $275K, and you show $825K.

Questions from startups
- Are we too early to buy GPUs?
- If your usage is small or changes every month, probably. Owning pays off when the servers stay busy.
- Do we pay everything upfront?
- Vendors usually take a 20-50% deposit and the rest before shipping. Lenders can finance part of it, and a signed customer contract makes that much easier.
- How many servers should we start with?
- One is enough. Many startups start with 8 to 16. Our setup fee is the same for 1 to 7.
- Can we rent out capacity we don’t use?
- Yes. We can find a customer on a multi-year contract, for 2.5% of the contract if it signs.
- Who has access to our servers?
- Your team holds admin access. We manage the hardware, not your data or models.
