Weekly median price per GPU per hour · Get the data
By provider shows one card per company, placed where its best offer ranked. By configuration lists every offer.
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:
We match the provider, its country, 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.
No providers match .
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. Verify before provisioning. More on how we price.
One GTX 1660 has 6 GB of VRAM. Even at 4-bit, the weights of most modern AI models exceed the card's usable VRAM, and context adds KV cache on top. Below are some open-weight LLMs, with the estimated memory and GPUs each one needs.

Estimates based on the median on-demand rate. Memory is weights plus FP16/BF16 KV cache at 32K context per request. GPU counts assume 90% of advertised VRAM is usable. No guarantee of runtime support, usable performance, or that a matching quantized build exists. Pricing methodology.

As of October 3, 2026, we track 8 configs from 3 providers. Prices are per GPU per hour.
| Billing type | Configs | Cheapest |
|---|---|---|
On-demand | 2 | $0.04 (in stock, Salad) |
Reserved | 4 | $0.19 (24 mo) |
Spot | 2 | $0.02 (in stock, Salad) |
No median for on-demand, reserved and spot: we only show this when at least 3 providers list the GPU on that billing type.
The cheapest verified in-stock estimate is $29 per month on-demand, $14 spot.
GetDeploying currently tracks GTX 1660 configs from 3 providers. Salad and Vast.ai have verified in-stock on-demand configs. See the full price comparison above for every provider and config.
More than one: even at 4-bit, the weights of most modern AI models exceed one GTX 1660's usable VRAM, and context adds KV cache on top. Larger models run across multiple GPUs: the model table above shows the estimated memory and GPU count for popular open-weight LLMs.
6GB GDDR5. Budget Turing GPU without RT or Tensor Cores.
No Tensor Cores and only 6GB VRAM. Only viable for basic cloud desktop rendering or legacy compute tasks.
