AMD MI325X
vs
Nvidia RTX 3050
A data center GPU against a consumer card, one CDNA 3 and one Ampere: 256 GB HBM3e against 8 GB GDDR6, 27x the memory bandwidth on the MI325X, and Infinity Fabric 896 GB/s on the MI325X where the RTX 3050 is PCIe only.

Price comparison
Median price per GPU per hour by billing type, with the cheapest listing under it.
| Billing | MI325X | RTX 3050 | Difference |
|---|---|---|---|
| On-demand | $3.07 /GPU/hr from $2.25 | -- /GPU/hr from $0.07 | |
| Reserved | $1.95 /GPU/hr from $1.48 (12 mo) | No reserved listings | |
| Spot | Sold out | -- /GPU/hr from $0.03 |
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 on-demand and spot on the RTX 3050: we only show one when at least 3 providers list the GPU on that billing type. Verify before provisioning. More on how we price.
