Different hardware.
Two ways to price it.

Pricing policy

Working definitions: phases are selected manually; no calendar or milestone automatically changes the phase. Phase amounts exclude electricity. Price + utility uses a base facility charge, electricity and 40%/60% marginal price participation. Green funding is reserved inside provider receipts, not charged a second time. Thresholds and charges remain unset until you enter them.

Compare the economics

What this comparison means

A spare is purchased and consumes its entered standby power, but earns no billable GPU-hours. Two active GPUs have separate billable capacity; this does not mean they equal a newer GPU’s performance or sale price. Average operating and standby power are independent of paid utilization.

Warranty and extra hardware are different forms of protection. This is a comparison option, not an assertion of equivalent uptime, vendor coverage, failover capability or acceptance for a particular service. Repair rates, swap time, failure correlation and site-wide outages are not simulated here. Coverage costs and maintenance must be entered separately without duplicating included scope.

Totals are before tax, financing, depreciation, contractual investor distributions and resale. Unknown required inputs remain blank. Provider receipts after the green reserve are before its facility/staff costs and are not company profit. Green reserve rates are manual inputs here; this comparison does not change the rollout dashboard’s funding assumptions.

Inputs are illustrative planning entries stored only in this browser when saved. No GPU quotes, real company accounts or confidential cost register are embedded.
