Price history

Each point is the daily cross-provider median for this SKU and pricing type (per-provider medians first, so no marketplace’s volume dominates). Gaps are gaps — we don’t interpolate missing data.

Dashed/hollow points before 2026-08-09: archival reconstruction from dated provider pricing-page snapshots (see methodology) — fewer providers, monthly resolution.

Segment medians. A hyperscaler list price and a marketplace bid are different products; the headline median above spans all of them.

Prices are as listed by providers at scrape time; availability at a listed price isn’t guaranteed. Links marked ↗ may be affiliate links — they never affect prices shown or ordering.

NVIDIA A100 80GB SXM, NVIDIA A100 80GB PCIe, and NVIDIA A100 40GB SXM are tracked as separate SKUs — different interconnect, different performance, different market. Comparing them in one number would be wrong, so we don’t.
