Nvidia’s Blackwell B200 GPU systems are sold out, with backlog stretching as far as 12 months. Customers are reportedly placing orders for 100,000 GPUs at a time.
CEO Jensen Huang has described Blackwell sales as “off the charts,” confirming that cloud GPU capacity is fully sold out through at least the 2025 earnings period. This is the same pattern that played out with Nvidia’s previous Hopper-generation H100 chips.
The numbers behind the frenzy
Complete 8x B200 server systems are being quoted above $500,000. Individual B200 GPUs carry price tags in the $45,000 to $50,000 range.
Blackwell systems achieve inference costs of roughly $0.02 per million tokens, representing a substantial cost reduction compared to previous GPU generations.
