How much does an H100 cost in Australia?

No H100 cards were listed by Australian retailers on 15 November 2026. Used 8-GPU HGX H100 servers trade for US$225,000 to US$275,000 (about A$321,000 to A$393,000 before freight and GST), and renting one H100 in Australia costs A$3,980 a month at Micron21.

How much is an H200 in Australia?

A single H200 NVL card listed from A$52,999 to A$94,399 including GST on 15 November 2026. A new 8-GPU HGX H200 server lists for US$320,000 to US$420,000, about A$457,000 to A$600,000 before freight and GST.

Is H200 worth it over H100?

Yes when your workload is memory-bound. H200 has 141 GB per GPU against 80 GB and 43% more bandwidth, so large models and long contexts run on fewer GPUs.

Can I rent an H100 in Australia?

Yes. Micron21 lists a single-H100 cloud server in Australia at A$3,980 a month; global specialist clouds charge about US$1.70 to US$2.63 per GPU-hour.

Why Australian prices vary so much

The same H200 NVL card was listed at A$52,999 by PC Case Gear (supplied only inside MSI servers) and A$94,399 by Scorptec on 15 November 2026, a gap of A$41,400. Data-centre GPUs reach Australia through a handful of distributors with different allocation and margins, so quotes for identical hardware can differ by tens of thousands of dollars.

H100 vs H200: what you get for the money

8-GPU platform	Memory per GPU	Memory per node	Bandwidth per GPU	NVLink per GPU
HGX H100	80 GB HBM3	640 GB	3.35 TB/s	900 GB/s
HGX H200	141 GB HBM3e	1,128 GB	4.8 TB/s	900 GB/s
HGX B300	288 GB HBM3e	about 2.3 TB	8 TB/s	1.8 TB/s

NVIDIA published specifications.

H200 gives 76% more memory and 43% more bandwidth per GPU than H100 on the same Hopper architecture. Memory decides most buying decisions: pick the smallest platform that holds your model, context length and batch size on one node, because spreading a model across nodes costs more than the price gap between platforms.

Buy or rent?

Renting one H100 in Australia at A$3,980 a month adds up to A$143,280 over three years.
A used HGX H100 server at the US$250,000 median works out to about US$31,250 per GPU, about A$44,600, before hosting, power and support.
If a GPU will be busy for most of three years, owning usually costs less; for short projects or uncertain demand, renting keeps cash free.

How to choose

Model fits in 640 GB with room for context: a used HGX H100 node is the lowest cost per GPU.
Model or KV cache needs more than 640 GB, or you serve long contexts: HGX H200.
No HGX baseboard in your rack: H200 NVL PCIe cards in a standard server.
Reasoning models, very long context or frontier training: HGX B300, ordered through the OEM channel.

Supply in late 2026

Reuters reported on 5 November 2026 that about 600,000 H200s were being held in Hong Kong while Beijing withheld import approval, after the US approved H200 sales to China under conditions in January 2026. Some of that stock is offered to buyers outside China, so serial numbers and export paperwork matter as much as the price: ask for serials before you pay and have the OEM or NVIDIA confirm them against an authorised sale.

Methodology: how we collected these prices

We read StaticICE's Australian listings for 'nvidia h100', 'h100 nvl' and 'nvidia h200' on 15 November 2026 (no H100 cards were listed) and Micron21's published H100 cloud price the same day. Server and per-GPU prices come from the dated indices and price guides listed below. Parkways Compute buys this hardware for its own Brisbane data centre, so these are the numbers we work from.
