Price comparison
Median price per GPU per hour by billing type, with the cheapest listing under it.
| Billing | A10 | A5000 | Difference |
|---|---|---|---|
| On-demand | $1.42 /GPU/hr from $0.23 | $1.24 /GPU/hr from $0.23 | 13% cheaper on A5000 |
| Reserved | -- /GPU/hr from $0.71 (12 mo) | $0.35 /GPU/hr from $0.19 (12 mo) | |
| Spot | -- /GPU/hr from $0.59 | -- /GPU/hr from $0.09 |
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 and spot on the A10 and spot on the A5000: we only show one when at least 3 providers list the GPU on that billing type. Verify before provisioning. More on how we price.
