# Reserved GPU capacity: −35% and a held seat

For workloads that run every day, reservations stack a further 35% discount on top of prices already 30% under market — H100 SXM drops to **$0.928** /hr, locked for the term, with capacity guaranteed even when a region runs hot.

### Deepest rate

On-demand × 0.65 — roughly 55% under the market median once the 30% floor is stacked in. The cheapest legitimate way to run a permanent GPU.

### Capacity held

Reserved capacity is fenced from the on-demand pool. Your deploys never queue, even during launch-week GPU droughts.

### Rate locked

Market up or down, your price is signed for the term. Budget a quarter to the dollar.

### Billed monthly

No giant upfront invoice: the commitment draws from your crypto-funded balance month by month.

## Reserved rates on the big cards

The 3-month figure is the full commitment cost per GPU — compare it with four weeks of your current invoice.

| GPU | On-demand | Reserved | Per month (730 h) | 3-month commit |  |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| [B200](https://powergpu.ai/gpu/b200) | $5.425 | $3.526 (−35%) | $2,574 | $7,722 | [Reserve](https://cloud.powergpu.ai/app/support) |
| [H200](https://powergpu.ai/gpu/h200) | $2.791 | $1.814 (−35%) | $1,324 | $3,973 | [Reserve](https://cloud.powergpu.ai/app/support) |
| [H100 SXM](https://powergpu.ai/gpu/h100-sxm) | $1.428 | $0.928 (−35%) | $677 | $2,032 | [Reserve](https://cloud.powergpu.ai/app/support) |
| [A100 SXM4](https://powergpu.ai/gpu/a100-sxm4) | $0.560 | $0.364 (−35%) | $266 | $797 | [Reserve](https://cloud.powergpu.ai/app/support) |
| [L40S](https://powergpu.ai/gpu/l40s) | $0.514 | $0.334 (−35%) | $244 | $731 | [Reserve](https://cloud.powergpu.ai/app/support) |
| [RTX 5090](https://powergpu.ai/gpu/rtx-5090) | $0.439 | $0.285 (−35%) | $208 | $624 | [Reserve](https://cloud.powergpu.ai/app/support) |

6-month terms take a further −5%, 12-month −10% — quoted per request from the console.

## When reserving beats everything

- **Production inference** — endpoints with steady traffic 24/7.
- **Training programmes** — research groups with a standing compute budget.
- **Render pipelines** — studios with a predictable nightly queue.
- **Migration off hyperscalers** — an H100 reserved here costs less than a quarter of typical list price.

Rule of thumb: if your utilisation is above ~65%, reserved beats on-demand; below that, stay [on-demand](https://powergpu.ai/products/on-demand) or go [interruptible](https://powergpu.ai/products/interruptible).

Need more than 16 GPUs?

Fleet reservations, InfiniBand clusters, custom regions and invoicing conversations live on the [enterprise page](https://powergpu.ai/enterprise). Everything is still crypto-settled and still priced from the public sheet.

Median time from ticket to running fleet: 3 business days.

## Reserved GPUs: FAQ

Terms live in the [terms of service](https://powergpu.ai/legal/terms); capacity questions in a [console ticket](https://cloud.powergpu.ai/app/support).

**How does a reservation work?**

You commit to a GPU model and quantity for 3, 6 or 12 months and pay the reserved rate (−35% off on-demand) for the committed hours, drawn from your credit balance month by month — not all upfront. The capacity is held for you: deploys against a reservation never wait.

**What if I stop using it halfway through?**

The commitment bills for its term whether instances run or not — that is what buys the discount and the held capacity. You can upgrade a reservation to a bigger one at any time; we credit the remainder.

**Does the reserved price ever change mid-term?**

No. The rate is locked at signature for the entire term, even if market prices — and therefore our on-demand prices — move. Renewal re-prices at the then-current sheet.

**Can I reserve multi-node clusters?**

Yes — reservations are how most InfiniBand cluster capacity is sold. See the clusters page or open a ticket from the console with your target topology; provisioning takes 1–3 days.
