AMD MI250
vs
Nvidia P6000
A data center GPU against a workstation card, one CDNA2 and one Pascal: 128 GB HBM2e against 24 GB GDDR5X, 7.4x the memory bandwidth on the MI250, and Infinity Fabric 400 GB/s on the MI250 where the P6000 is PCIe only.

Price comparison
Median price per GPU per hour by billing type, with the cheapest listing under it.
| Billing | MI250 | P6000 | Difference |
|---|---|---|---|
| On-demand | No on-demand listings | -- /GPU/hr from $1.10 | |
| Reserved | -- /GPU/hr from $1.30 (12 mo) | No reserved listings |
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 MI250 and on-demand on the P6000: we only show one when at least 3 providers list the GPU on that billing type. Verify before provisioning. More on how we price.
