A10 Pricing and Availability

Barriers to entry are low here. 10 cloud providers list the A10 with prices starting at just $0.20/hr per GPU (on-demand), making it accessible for testing without a large commitment.

10 providers

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, largest first:

  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: in By configuration, a provider's repeat rows rank slightly lower, so one company can't take all the top spots.

Search

We match the provider, 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.

Frequently Asked Questions

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.

Are A10 prices going up or down?

The median on-demand price across providers has fallen about 5% since August 2025, from $1.50 to $1.42/hr per GPU. This reflects the market-wide median, which moves both when providers change prices and when lower or higher priced offerings enter the market.

What size AI models can the A10 run?

With 24GB of VRAM, the A10 can typically run 7B to 13B models in FP16, or larger models in 4-bit quantized form.

How much VRAM does the A10 have?

The A10 has 24GB of VRAM. Multi-GPU setups increase total memory, but that memory is not automatically pooled across GPUs.

What is the A10's memory bandwidth?

The A10 has 600 GB/s of memory bandwidth. Higher bandwidth helps with faster data transfer between GPU memory and compute cores.

What data types does the A10 support?

The A10 supports 6 precision formats. Training: BF16, FP16, TF32, FP32. Inference: INT4, INT8.

Does the A10 support NVLink?

No. The A10 is a PCIe-only GPU with no NVLink, so it is better suited to single-GPU inference and smaller-scale workloads than large distributed training jobs.

How much does the A10 cost per hour?

A10 pricing currently ranges from $0.18/hr to $4.52/hr per GPU, depending on the provider, instance type, and billing model.

How much does the A10 cost per month?

At 720 hours per month, one A10 can cost between $126.58 to $3,254.40 per month, depending on the provider. Reserved and spot pricing can lower that further.

Which cloud providers offer the A10?

The A10 is available from 10 cloud providers, including OVHcloud, Cerebrium, Runcrate. Pricing and availability vary by region and billing model.

Can I rent the A10 in the cloud?

Yes. We currently track 54 A10 listings across 10 cloud providers:

Billing type Listings Avg $/GPU/hr
On-demand 31 $1.84/hr
Reserved 20 $1.63/hr
Spot 3 $0.69/hr
