According to EpochAI's latest cost breakdown analysis, producing Nvidia's B200 GPU requires approximately $5,700 to $7,300 per unit, averaging around $6,500. The component cost structure is particularly interesting: HBM (High Bandwidth Memory) dominates at nearly half the total expense, running roughly $2,900 per chip. Advanced packaging technology and yield losses account for another significant chunk at approximately $2,100. This cost architecture reveals why GPU supply chains remain critical infrastructure for data centers and computing-intensive operations across the industry. Understanding these manufacturing economics helps explain market dynamics when production capacity tightens.
