Self-built Blackwell Colab pipeline generates a 2-hour MiniMax H3 movie for $6.96
Interesting-Town-433 · reddit · 2026-09-18
A developer's optimized Colab setup on a Blackwell GPU produces 15 seconds of MiniMax H3 video per 60 seconds of processing — 1 GPU-hour ≈ 15 minutes of footage. By this math, 8 GPU-hours ($6.96) yields a full 2-hour movie, versus $288-576 via fal or MiniMax's direct API (41-83x pricier). The Colab notebook is open-sourced, and the author promotes their MissingLink project built around this.
