GPU Cluster Economics 2026: H100 vs Trainium2 vs TPUv5e
This document compares the true Total Cost of Ownership for AI accelerators like the NVIDIA H100, AWS Trainium2, and GCP TPUv5e. It utilizes the Effective Token Yield (ETY) framework to evaluate silicon based on Model Flops Utilization (MFU) and network overhead rather than simple hourly compute rates.
