Default ranking

Our algorithm weighs five factors to find the most relevant matches for you:

  1. Price: We blend total hourly price with price-per-GPU to balance affordability and value.
  2. Specs: We favor offers with higher CPU, RAM, and GPU Memory.
  3. Billing: We favor on-demand billing for simplicity and flexibility over spot instances, reservations, and custom quotes.
  4. Location: We blend both datacenter proximity and provider HQ location. Datacenter location matters for latency, while HQ location matters for compliance and support.
  5. Provider diversity: Each time a provider appears in the list, their subsequent offerings are ranked a little lower, so one provider's offerings don't crowd out the top positions.

Sorting and filtering

Click any column header to sort by that column. Use the filters above the table to narrow results by billing type, GPU count, vCPUs, or RAM. Custom sorting resets the default relevance ranking.

Transparency and funding

Ads and sponsors: Any paid placements are fixed at the top and clearly labeled as sponsored content.

Affiliates: Any affiliate links will be indicated to you as well. We may earn a commission if you click them, but this never influences the ranking order.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why choose the A4000?

16GB GDDR6, compact single-slot professional GPU. Low power consumption. Suitable for entry-level AI development and visualization.

When is the A4000 not a good fit?

No NVLink. 16GB VRAM limits model sizes. For dedicated cloud AI inference, the L4 offers better throughput at lower cost.

Are A4000 prices going up or down?

On-demand pricing has increased by about 36% since June 2025, from $0.43 to $0.58/hr per GPU.

What size AI models can the A4000 run?

With 16GB of VRAM, the A4000 is best for 7B-class models in 4-bit or 8-bit quantized form, and smaller models in FP16.

How much VRAM does the A4000 have?

The A4000 has 16GB of VRAM. Multi-GPU setups increase total memory, but that memory is not automatically pooled across GPUs.

What is the A4000's memory bandwidth?

The A4000 has 448 GB/s of memory bandwidth. Higher bandwidth helps with faster data transfer between GPU memory and compute cores.

What data types does the A4000 support?

The A4000 supports 6 precision formats. Training: BF16, FP16, TF32, FP32. Inference: INT4, INT8.

Does the A4000 support NVLink?

No. The A4000 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 A4000 cost per hour?

A4000 pricing currently ranges from $0.09/hr to $0.88/hr per GPU, depending on the provider, instance type, and billing model.

How much does the A4000 cost per month?

At 720 hours per month, one A4000 can cost between $68.00 to $633.60 per month, depending on the provider. Reserved and spot pricing can lower that further.

Which cloud providers offer the A4000?

The A4000 is available from 9 cloud providers, including Cirrascale, Sesterce, Hyperstack. Pricing and availability vary by region and billing model.

Can I rent the A4000 in the cloud?
