Significantly more than that; MFN pricing for NVIDIA DGX H100 (which has been getting priority supply allocation, so many have been suckered into buying them in order to get fast delivery) is ~$309k, while a basically equivalent HGX H100 system is ~$250k, coming to a price per GPU at the full server level being ~$31.5k. With Meta’s custom OCP systems integrating the SXM baseboards from NVIDIA, my guess is that their cost per GPU would be in the ~$23-$25k range.

350,000 NVIDIA H100 x $23k = $8b :0

Wait till you find out how much they spent on VR.

It is a real loophole in the economy. If you're a trillion dollar company the market will insist you set such sums on fire just to be in the race for $current-hype. If they do it drives their market cap higher still and if they don't they risk being considered un-innovative and therefore doomed to irrelevancy and the market cap will spiral downwards.

Sort of reminds me of The Producers.

Would you kindly provide sources to the numbers? What is MFN?

Thanks! (Your number is consistent with what I hear of, but I never managed to get solid sources to back them up)
