The GPUs that depreciate like gangbusters. Yeah, solid long term plan.

3090s are still selling at damn near their release MSRP.
They're not filling datacenters with 3090s. With the amount of headache and the amount of infrastructure needed to support those beasts, do they even have a resale price at all? Or just scrap value?
Yes. Their resale price is in the same range as the cost of a new car. I'd buy one if I could, but they're too expensive for me.
you know you can just log onto eBay and see what the price of a used H100 is. nobody is stopping you
Wasn't thinking of H100s either. I spoke of infrastructure support, and I was being literal. A herd of GB200s needs a building built to stringent specifications to house them.
