Price comparison

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

Billing RTX 2080 Ti RTX 4000 Difference
On-demand $0.10 /GPU/hr from $0.07 -- /GPU/hr from $0.56
Spot -- /GPU/hr from $0.06 No spot 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 spot on the RTX 2080 Ti and on-demand on the RTX 4000: we only show one when at least 3 providers list the GPU on that billing type. Verify before provisioning. More on how we price.
