Two Nvidia workstation GPUs, one Ada Lovelace and one Turing: both with 16 GB GDDR6, 2x the memory bandwidth on the RTX 5000, and NVLink 50 GB/s on the RTX 5000 where the RTX 2000 Ada is PCIe only.

Price comparison
Median price per GPU per hour by billing type, with the cheapest listing under it.
| Billing | RTX 2000 Ada | RTX 5000 | Difference |
|---|---|---|---|
| On-demand | $0.24 /GPU/hr from $0.13 | -- /GPU/hr from $0.60 | |
| Reserved | On request | No reserved listings |
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 on the RTX 5000: we only show one when at least 3 providers list the GPU on that billing type. Verify before provisioning. More on how we price.
