A data center GPU against a workstation card, one Blackwell and one Ada Lovelace: up to 192 GB HBM3e against 48 GB GDDR6, 8.3x the memory bandwidth on the B100, and NVLink 1,800 GB/s on the B100 where the RTX 6000 Ada is PCIe only.

Price comparison
Median price per GPU per hour by billing type, with the cheapest listing under it.
| Billing | B100 | RTX 6000 Ada | Difference |
|---|---|---|---|
| On-demand | No on-demand listings | $1.04 /GPU/hr from $0.84 | |
| Reserved | No reserved listings | -- /GPU/hr from $1.04 (12 mo) | |
| Spot | No spot listings | Sold out |
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 on the RTX 6000 Ada: we only show one when at least 3 providers list the GPU on that billing type. Verify before provisioning. More on how we price.
