Nvidia’s H100 GPU gains about 30% in value as AI compute demand holds firm

Rental rates for Nvidia's 2022-era flagship chip have rebounded sharply from 2025 lows as AI training and inference keep capacity tight Most hardware loses value the moment it leaves the box. Nvidia ’s H100 is not following that script. The H100 is worth about 30% more than it was a year ago, fueled by heavy demand for AI compute. For a data center chip that debuted in Q4 2022, that is a strange kind of aging. The rebound arrives after a rough 2025 for H100 pricing, when rental prices slumped. In 2026, the trend flipped. Demand for both AI training, which builds models, and AI inference, which runs them for users, has pulled rates back up.
