Price comparison

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

Billing	RTX A2000	RTX 2000 Ada	Difference
On-demand	$0.13 /GPU/hr from $0.11	$0.24 /GPU/hr from $0.12	46% cheaper on RTX A2000

Spot	-- /GPU/hr from $0.05	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 RTX A2000: we only show one when at least 3 providers list the GPU on that billing type. Verify before provisioning. More on how we price.
