AMD MI210
vs
Nvidia GTX 1060
A data center GPU against a consumer card, one CDNA2 and one Pascal: 64 GB HBM2e against 6 GB GDDR5, 8.5x the memory bandwidth on the MI210, and Infinity Fabric 300 GB/s on the MI210 where the GTX 1060 is PCIe only.

Price comparison
Median price per GPU per hour by billing type, with the cheapest listing under it.
| Billing | MI210 | GTX 1060 | Difference |
|---|---|---|---|
| On-demand | No on-demand listings | -- /GPU/hr from $0.03 | |
| Reserved | -- /GPU/hr from $0.86 (1 mo) | -- /GPU/hr from $0.09 (1 mo) | |
| Spot | No spot listings | -- /GPU/hr from $0.02 |
Heads up: A provider's own page may quote a different figure, for example on tax, region or a promotion. A monthly-only plan shows a derived hourly rate. Medians are across providers, one vote each, so a large catalog does not outweigh a small one. No median for reserved on the MI210 and on-demand, reserved and spot on the GTX 1060: we only show one when at least 3 providers list the GPU on that billing type. Verify before provisioning.
