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 GTX 1070?

8GB GDDR5. Very affordable for basic GPU computing.

When is the GTX 1070 not a good fit?

No Tensor Cores. Legacy architecture only viable for basic CUDA development or cloud desktop rendering.

Are GTX 1070 prices going up or down?

On-demand pricing has increased by about 483% since July 2025, from $0.05 to $0.29/hr per GPU.

What size AI models can the GTX 1070 run?

With 8GB of VRAM, the GTX 1070 is mainly limited to small quantized models and lightweight GPU workloads.

How much VRAM does the GTX 1070 have?

The GTX 1070 has 8GB of VRAM. Multi-GPU setups increase total memory, but that memory is not automatically pooled across GPUs.

What is the GTX 1070's memory bandwidth?

The GTX 1070 has 256 GB/s of memory bandwidth. Higher bandwidth helps with faster data transfer between GPU memory and compute cores.

What data types does the GTX 1070 support?

The GTX 1070 supports 2 precision formats. Training: FP16, FP32.

Does the GTX 1070 support NVLink?

No. The GTX 1070 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 GTX 1070 cost per hour?

GTX 1070 pricing currently ranges from $0.02/hr to $0.53/hr per GPU, depending on the provider, instance type, and billing model.

How much does the GTX 1070 cost per month?

At 720 hours per month, one GTX 1070 can cost between $17.57 to $382.39 per month, depending on the provider. Reserved and spot pricing can lower that further.

Which cloud providers offer the GTX 1070?

The GTX 1070 is available from 3 cloud providers: Salad, Theta EdgeCloud, Vast.ai.

Can I rent the GTX 1070 in the cloud?

Yes. We currently track 5 GTX 1070 listings across 3 cloud providers:

Billing type Listings Avg $/GPU/hr
On-demand 3 $0.29/hr
Reserved 1 $0.53/hr
Spot 1 $0.02/hr
