Self-hostingEstimated
How we estimate →What it would cost to run these open weights yourself on rented GPUs, compared with the API price above.
- Hardware
- 2× B200 180GB
- FP8 weights
- Throughput
- ~8,082 tok/s
- many requests batched
- Price
- $0.15–1.38 /M tok
- busy → light use
- On your own machine
- Mac Studio M5 Max 128GB (int4, ~78 tok/s single-stream)
- single consumer GPU or Mac
Assumptions (5)
- FP8 weights (198B params, 11B active per token) + 25% KV-cache headroom ≈ 248 GB
- 2× B200 180GB at $5.98–$14.24/GPU-hour on-demand (2026-09-24)
- ~8,082 output tok/s aggregate at batch 231 (bandwidth-bound); MoE compute scales with active params
- Blended 3:1 input:output; prefill ~193,295 tok/s
- Low = 75% utilization at the low GPU price; high = 20% at the high price
