Compare Cloud Provider Prices
You can start using a GTX 1660 for $0.04/hr per GPU (spot instance). It's a low-risk price point for smaller workloads compared to the market high of $0.40/hr.
How we sort results
Default ranking
Our algorithm weighs five factors to find the most relevant matches for you:
- Price: We blend total hourly price with price-per-GPU to balance affordability and value.
- Specs: We favor offers with higher CPU, RAM, and GPU Memory.
- Billing: We favor on-demand billing for simplicity and flexibility over spot instances, reservations, and custom quotes.
- Location: We blend both datacenter proximity and provider HQ location. Datacenter location matters for latency, while HQ location matters for compliance and support.
- 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 1660?
6GB GDDR5. Budget Turing GPU without RT or Tensor Cores.
When is the GTX 1660 not a good fit?
No Tensor Cores and only 6GB VRAM. Only viable for basic cloud desktop rendering or legacy compute tasks.
Are GTX 1660 prices going up or down?
On-demand pricing has decreased by about 66% since June 2025, dropping from $0.22 to $0.07/hr per GPU.
What size AI models can the GTX 1660 run?
With 6GB of VRAM, the GTX 1660 is mainly limited to small quantized models and lightweight GPU workloads.
How much VRAM does the GTX 1660 have?
The GTX 1660 has 6GB of VRAM. Multi-GPU setups increase total memory, but that memory is not automatically pooled across GPUs.
What is the GTX 1660's memory bandwidth?
The GTX 1660 has 192 GB/s of memory bandwidth. Higher bandwidth helps with faster data transfer between GPU memory and compute cores.
What data types does the GTX 1660 support?
The GTX 1660 supports 2 precision formats. Training: FP16, FP32.
Does the GTX 1660 support NVLink?
No. The GTX 1660 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 1660 cost per hour?
GTX 1660 pricing currently ranges from $0.04/hr to $0.40/hr per GPU, depending on the provider, instance type, and billing model.
How much does the GTX 1660 cost per month?
At 720 hours per month, one GTX 1660 can cost between $31.46 to $290.16 per month, depending on the provider. Reserved and spot pricing can lower that further.
Which cloud providers offer the GTX 1660?
The GTX 1660 is available from 3 cloud providers: Salad, Database Mart, Vast.ai.
