The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence and machine learning has made GPU selection more critical than ever. NVIDIA's H100 and A100 GPUs stand at the forefront of this evolution, offering unprecedented performance for complex AI workloads. In this article we explore the specifications, performance metrics, and value propositions to help you make an informed decision.

H100 vs A100 Comparison

While the H100 leads in performance, dramatic market changes have made it the clear choice for most AI workloads. H100 cloud pricing has plummeted from $8/hour to $2.85-$3.50/hour due to increased availability and provider competition. This pricing shift has effectively eliminated the A100's previous cost advantage, making the H100's superior performance (2-3x faster for most workloads) the deciding factor. Combined with the A100's limited availability and the upcoming B200 release in early 2025, organizations are increasingly standardizing on H100 for their AI infrastructure.
