@ Core-weave an A100 40GB NVLink is $2.06 ... the only way they are doing this is by burning investor money. At that price it running it 24/7 it will take way over a year to recoup hardware + electricity cost.

So my suggestion.. dump all your work @ Core-weave.. It's cheaper than buying the hardware yourself let alone the cost of managing it.

They've been running for years already. They can also offer these lower end gpus at that price cause the higher end ones offset things.

Does this assume retail price? Maybe they are getting a discount for buying in bulk
