B200 GPU pricing: rental cost per hour across cloud providers
Direct answer
The cheapest B200 GPU rental tracked by ByteCosts is about $5.89 per GPU-hour on-demand at RunPod (1x_B200_SECURE in CA), or roughly $2.98 per GPU-hour on spot. B200 is available from 5 of the providers in the catalog across 36 regions. Rates are cloud rental list prices per GPU-hour (instance price divided by GPU count), not card MSRP, and exclude committed-use discounts. Spot capacity is cheaper but interruptible, so size on-demand for steady jobs and use spot for checkpointed work.

How to choose where to rent B200
The lowest per-GPU-hour rate is a starting point, not the decision. B200 cost in practice depends on utilization (an idle reserved GPU bills the full rate), whether your job tolerates spot interruption, and region and egress fees for moving weights or datasets.
Pick the cheapest provider that has capacity in a region near your data, can keep the GPU busy, and offers spot if your workload is checkpointed. A slightly higher headline rate in the right region often beats the cheapest row once egress and idle time are counted.
