Meta MTIA v2

Nobody outside Meta. It is in this table because leaving it out would misrepresent the market — hyperscaler custom silicon collectively outweighs AMD as a threat to NVIDIA.

Verified 2026-09-09. Fields reading “not published” are exactly that — we do not estimate a figure a vendor withholds.

The catch

You cannot rent, buy or benchmark it. Its market effect is entirely in the GPU orders Meta does not place.

The economics

Relevant to you only as demand it removes from the market you buy in.

Cost per million tokens is the metric that decides most real purchases, and there is no neutral benchmark for it — every published figure comes from a company selling one side of the comparison. Read all of them, ours included, as claims rather than measurements.

The power question underneath this

A rack of frontier accelerators draws 120–200 kW against a 2026 average of about 27 kW, and the US grid interconnection queue exceeds 2,600 GW with waits approaching five years. Whether you can energise this part is now a harder question than whether you can buy it.

Where you actually rent this

Choosing the part is the easy half. The same accelerator rents for wildly different money depending only on who you rent it from — the cheapest and dearest published on-demand price for an H100 sit 5.6× apart — and the provider, not the chip, is what decides whether you can leave later.

Macrostack does not sell silicon and takes no commission at this layer — there is no affiliate programme for compute, which is exactly why nobody publishes a neutral comparison of it.
