Price (USD)
7,500
Price basis
USED, bare passive FHFL PCIe card - drops into any x16 slot, no baseboard. $7,500 = midpoint of the $6,995-8,074 ask band captured 2026-10-03. ASKING price, not sold. Compare the bare 40GB SXM4 module at $2,499 (record ebay-used-a100-40gb-sxm4): the PCIe card asks ~2.8x the SXM4 module - that gap is the HGX baseboard problem priced in, NOT a silicon difference. PERISHABLE-FIGURE STAMP: OBSERVED 2026-10-14. RE-VERIFY BY: 2027-01-14.

Export control note
A100 classifies under ECCN 3A090; US sellers gate the sale behind compliance approval and international buyers face a real paperwork wall. Screen parties; verify destination and end-user.
notes
The zero-drama A100 route: same GA100 die as the 40GB SXM4 in a passive FHFL PCIe card. THE PRICE IS A FORM-FACTOR STORY, NOT A SILICON STORY - 2.8x the SXM4 module because SXM needs a baseboard. SXM4-to-PCIe adapters at $648-1,200 put total-landed SXM+adapter ~$3,150-3,700, still half this PCIe ask, but the adapter route is grey-market (power delivery + firmware are buyer-beware). 40 GB HBM2, 5120-bit, 1555 GB/s identical to SXM4; 250 W cap, no NVSwitch, lower boost clocks. Export control: ECCN 3A090, compliance screening enforced on these listings.
