Selling B300 inference nets $40/hr vs $6/hr rental — but the math is disputed
TheZachMueller · x · 2026-10-15
Evan Conrad claimed that selling inference on a B300 yields about $40/hr while renting a B300 costs only $6/hr — "one of these numbers has to change," noting his company's token bill keeps rising.
Zach Mueller pushed back: the $40 figure assumes max saturation and utilization, which doesn't happen 24/7. He called the account "a ton of noise and pretty numbers," urging readers to run the numbers themselves.
