|---|---|---|---|
| On-demand | $1.39 /GPU/hr from $0.10 | $0.99 /GPU/hr from $0.54 | 29% cheaper on RTX 6000 Ada |
| Reserved | $1.04 /GPU/hr from $0.22 (24 mo) | $1.13 /GPU/hr from $0.55 (1 mo) | 8% cheaper on P100 |
| Spot | -- /GPU/hr from $0.08 | -- /GPU/hr from $0.27 |
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 spot on the P100 and spot on the RTX 6000 Ada: we only show one when at least 3 providers list the GPU on that billing type. Verify before provisioning. More on how we price.
