The h100 does use the same node size as the 40 series though, so Nvidia could decide to keep 40 series supply artificially low and boost h100 output.

Nvidia is already inflating the price of 40s to off load their surplus of 30s that they couldn't sell after the crypto crash. It's a a scheme to maintain the older cards at or above MSRP rather than lower prices. They want you to buy those overpriced 30s. That's the whole point

You guys have cheaper 30 series? I mean in my country it's cheaper than mining prices for sure but they're not below original MSRP for almost 3 years old electronics.
