Price comparison

Median price per GPU per hour by billing type, with the cheapest listing under it.

Billing	L4	RTX 2060 Super
On-demand	$0.87 /GPU/hr from $0.32	-- /GPU/hr from $0.07
Reserved	$0.50 /GPU/hr from $0.32 (36 mo)	-- /GPU/hr from $0.07 (3 mo)
Spot	$0.41 /GPU/hr from $0.13	-- /GPU/hr from $0.04

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 on-demand, reserved and spot on the RTX 2060 Super: we only show one when at least 3 providers list the GPU on that billing type. Verify before provisioning. More on how we price.
