Prices are not public, but comments over the years have hinted it’s in the $500K to $1mm range.
Their hardware is multiple generations behind at this point, however. I wonder if they’re starting to reduce the price because it’s hard to justify paying so much for old hardware. They could just be targeting customers who don’t care as much about performance or efficiency as they do the software stack.
- zozbot234 9mo agoBeing a few generations behind is kinda par for the course for any server hardware that's put in production, this is not a gaming PC build. Hopefully they're working on bringing their hardware up to date, since efficiency is a key consideration for the class of workloads they're aiming at.
- Aurornis 9mo ago> Being a few generations behind is kinda par for the course for any server hardware that's put in production No it’s not. Normally if you’re buying server hardware you don’t start with a CPU that’s already 5 years old and last-generation RAM that isn’t even manufactured at scale any more. CPUs have advanced a lot in recent years. The jump from Zen 3 to Zen 5 is very substantial.
- panick21_ 9mo agoFrom what they say and their podcast its pretty clear that they already have the next generation sled and likely already sell it to existing costumers, its just not on the website.
- kev507 9mo agoWanted to follow up on this, new sleds with AMD Turin (current gen CPUs) are shipping to select customers now with general availability very soon. https://www.theregister.com/2026/02/13/whats_next_for_oxide_computer/ https://www.theregister.com/2026/02/13/whats_next_for_oxide_...
