MI300X vs A30

AMD MI300X vs Nvidia A30

Two data center GPUs, one CDNA 3 and one Ampere: 192 GB HBM3 against 24 GB HBM2, 5.7x the memory bandwidth on the MI300X, and Infinity Fabric 896 GB/s on the MI300X where the A30 is PCIe only.

Price comparison

Median price per GPU per hour by billing type, with the cheapest listing under it.

Billing	MI300X	A30	Difference
On-demand	$2.99 /GPU/hr from $2.59	$0.55 /GPU/hr from $0.29	5.4x more expensive on MI300X

Spot	-- /GPU/hr from $1.60	No spot 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 spot on the MI300X and reserved on the A30: we only show one when at least 3 providers list the GPU on that billing type. Verify before provisioning. More on how we price.
