Price comparison
Median price per GPU per hour by billing type, with the cheapest listing under it.
| Billing | RTX 2000 Ada | RTX 3070 | Difference |
|---|---|---|---|
| On-demand | $0.24 /GPU/hr from $0.13 | $0.08 /GPU/hr from $0.04 | 2.9x more expensive on RTX 2000 Ada |
| Reserved | On request | -- /GPU/hr from $0.09 (1 mo) | |
| Spot | No spot listings | -- /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 reserved and spot on the RTX 3070: we only show one when at least 3 providers list the GPU on that billing type. Verify before provisioning. More on how we price.
