The cheapest way to run Nemotron 3 Super

On an illustrative 70M-input / 30M-output monthly workload, today's lowest listed cost is roughly $17.95/month, at OpenRouter. Input-heavy, output-heavy and cache-heavy workloads can produce different winners. Use the live mix calculator below rather than combining floors from two different providers. On output-token cost alone, a busy self-hosted deployment can work out cheaper (~$0.082/1M output on MI300X). See the math below. Run your own numbers in the breakeven calculator, or read the breakeven math.

Cache read uses the listed cache rate where available; otherwise it falls back to normal input price. Batch, write-cache, volume and negotiated discounts are excluded.

Or run it yourself: Nemotron 3 Super self-hosting economics

Nemotron 3 Super is open-weight (NVIDIA Open Model), so the API price above competes with the GPU-hour market. 120B total parameters (MoE, ~12B active per token) needs roughly 165 GB VRAM at FP8 or 83 GB at INT4, KV-cache headroom included.

Breakeven estimate: a well-batched vLLM deployment on one MI300X ($0.500/hr) at ~3375 aggregate tok/s and 50% utilization works out to roughly $0.082 per 1M output tokens, versus $0.400 via the cheapest output-token API (OpenRouter). Self-hosting wins on cost if you can keep the GPU busy. Planning estimate: throughput varies with hardware, quantization, batch size and context. Tune it in the calculator.
