GTX 1070 Pricing and Availability

You can start using a GTX 1070 for $0.04/hr per GPU (on-demand). It's a low-risk price point for smaller workloads compared to the market high of $0.10/hr. Spot instances start lower, at $0.04/hr per GPU.

How this list works

The two views

By provider shows one card per company, placed where its best offer ranked. By configuration lists every offer.

Order

What you can rent comes first: in stock, then waitlist, then not reported, then out of stock. Priced offers rank ahead of quote-only, and on-demand ahead of other billing types.

Within a group, five factors set the order, largest first:

  1. Location: datacenter proximity, blended with provider HQ.
  2. Price: hourly price, per GPU and in total.
  3. Billing type: reserved ahead of spot, spot ahead of quote-only.
  4. Specs: more VRAM, vCPUs and RAM.
  5. Provider diversity: in By configuration, a provider's repeat rows rank slightly lower, so one company can't take all the top spots.

Search

We match the provider, GPU model, form factor, billing type, availability and instance name. Matching is partial and case-insensitive. Everyday words work too, so "interruptible" finds spot and "sold out" finds out of stock.

Transparency and funding

  • Ads and sponsors: Paid placements sit at the top of the list and are always labeled as sponsored content. Sponsorship never influences the organic ranking itself.
  • Affiliates: Affiliate links are marked. We may earn a commission if you click them, but commissions never affect the order.
  • Prices: Shown in USD, converted at daily reference rates where a provider publishes in another currency. A month means 720 hours. How we estimate costs.

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?

The median on-demand price across providers has fallen about 4% since August 2025, from $0.05 to $0.05/hr per GPU. This reflects the market-wide median, which moves both when providers change prices and when lower or higher priced offerings enter the market.

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 $0.04/hr to $0.10/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 $29.03 to $72.00 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 12 GTX 1070 listings across 3 cloud providers:

Billing type Listings Avg $/GPU/hr
On-demand 7 $0.05/hr
Spot 5 $0.04/hr
