Price comparison

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

Billing RTX 2060 RTX 5070 Difference
On-demand -- /GPU/hr from $0.05 -- /GPU/hr from $0.17
Reserved -- /GPU/hr from $0.17 (24 mo) No reserved listings
Spot -- /GPU/hr from $0.02 -- /GPU/hr from $0.08

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 and on-demand and spot on the RTX 5070: we only show one when at least 3 providers list the GPU on that billing type. Verify before provisioning. More on how we price.
