Billing	A5000	RTX PRO 4500	Difference
On-demand	$1.24 /GPU/hr from $0.23	$0.82 /GPU/hr from $0.31	34% cheaper on RTX PRO 4500
Reserved	$0.35 /GPU/hr from $0.19 (6 mo)	-- /GPU/hr from $0.33 (1 mo)
Spot	-- /GPU/hr from $0.09	-- /GPU/hr from $0.18

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 A5000 and reserved and spot on the RTX PRO 4500: we only show one when at least 3 providers list the GPU on that billing type. Verify before provisioning.
