How this list works

The two views

By provider shows one card per company, placed where its best offer ranked. By configuration lists every offer.

Order

What you can rent comes first: in stock, then waitlist, then not reported, then out of stock. Priced offers rank ahead of quote-only, and on-demand ahead of other billing types.

Within a group, five factors set the order:

  1. Location: datacenter proximity, blended with provider HQ.
  2. Price: hourly price, per GPU and in total.
  3. Billing type: reserved ahead of spot, spot ahead of quote-only.
  4. Specs: more VRAM, vCPUs and RAM.
  5. Provider diversity: a provider's repeat rows rank slightly lower, so one company can't take all the top spots.

Search

We match the provider, its country, GPU model, form factor, billing type, availability and instance name. Matching is partial and case-insensitive. Everyday words work too, so "interruptible" finds spot and "sold out" finds out of stock.

Transparency and funding

  • Ads and sponsors: Paid placements sit at the top of the list and are always labeled as sponsored content. Sponsorship never influences the organic ranking itself.
  • Affiliates: Affiliate links are marked. We may earn a commission if you click them, but commissions never affect the order.
  • Prices: Shown in USD, converted at daily reference rates where a provider publishes in another currency. A month means 720 hours. How we estimate costs.

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. Verify before provisioning. More on how we price.

What can the A10 run?

One A10 has 24 GB of VRAM. In practice, that's enough memory for roughly 21B parameters at 4-bit or 6B at 16-bit, assuming a 32K context. Below are some open-weight LLMs, with the estimated memory and GPUs each one needs.

Estimates based on the median on-demand rate. Memory is weights plus FP16/BF16 KV cache at 32K context per request. GPU counts assume 90% of advertised VRAM is usable. No guarantee of runtime support, usable performance, or that a matching quantized build exists. How we estimate costs.

Who has the cheapest A10?

The cheapest verified in-stock on-demand A10 tracked by GetDeploying is $0.20 per GPU per hour from Vast.ai. Cheapest verified in stock on other billing types: reserved $0.17 (12 mo), also from Vast.ai.

How much does the A10 cost per month?

At 720 hours per month, one A10 costs an estimated $1,022 at the median on-demand price. Cheapest verified in stock: $144 per month on-demand, $122 reserved (12 mo).

Where can I rent an A10?

GetDeploying currently tracks A10 configs from 9 providers. The cheapest verified in-stock on-demand configs come from Vast.ai, Lambda Labs, Sesterce and Runcrate. See the full price comparison above for every provider and config.

Are A10 prices going up or down?

As of September 13, 2026, the median on-demand price has been flat over the past 90 days, at about $1.42 per GPU per hour, though it is about 5% below where it was a year ago.

How many A10 GPUs do I need?

One A10 runs models up to roughly 21B parameters at 4-bit quantization or 6B at 16-bit, assuming a 32K context. Larger models run across multiple GPUs: the model table above shows the estimated memory and GPU count for popular open-weight LLMs.

Why choose the A10?

24GB GDDR6 with Ampere Tensor Cores. Good balance of price and performance for inference. Wide cloud availability and mature driver support.

When is the A10 not a good fit?

PCIe-only, no NVLink. 24GB VRAM limits model sizes. Lacks FP8 support found in Ada Lovelace GPUs (L4, L40S). For new inference deployments, consider the L4.
