Your GPU bill says $10,000. Your actual cost: $25,000–$65,000. Here's the math most teams aren't doing. A 72-hour H100 wait shows up as $0 on the invoice. No GPU-hours, nothing billed. Looks free. But your ML team just burned $5,400+ in salary sitting idle. Your fine-tune
AI visual note: The image is a promotional graphic from io.net titled "GPU Wait Times: What happens when you can't get a GPU?" It features stylized 3D illustrations of stacked GPU modules with fan designs, with one module highlighted in blue to draw attention. The caption explains that while a 72-hour wait for an H100 GPU shows $0 on an AWS invoice, the hidden costs of idle ML teams (such as wasted salaries of $5,400+) make the actual expense far higher—aligning with the post's point that the real cost of GPU wait times often dwarfs the billed amount.
