|---|---|---|---|
| On-demand | $0.56 /GPU/hr from $0.40 | $2.20 /GPU/hr from $0.66 | 3.9x more expensive on RTX PRO 6000 |
| Reserved | $0.48 /GPU/hr from $0.31 (6 mo) | $1.78 /GPU/hr from $0.48 (1 mo) | 3.7x more expensive on RTX PRO 6000 |
| Spot | -- /GPU/hr from $0.33 | $1.19 /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 RTX A6000: we only show one when at least 3 providers list the GPU on that billing type. Verify before provisioning. More on how we price.
