How this list works

The two views

By provider shows one card per company, placed where its best offer ranked. By configuration lists every offer.

Order

What you can rent comes first: in stock, then waitlist, then not reported, then out of stock. Priced offers rank ahead of quote-only, and on-demand ahead of other billing types.

Within a group, five factors set the order:

  1. Location: datacenter proximity, blended with provider HQ.
  2. Price: hourly price, per GPU and in total.
  3. Billing type: reserved ahead of spot, spot ahead of quote-only.
  4. Specs: more VRAM, vCPUs and RAM.
  5. Provider diversity: a provider's repeat rows rank slightly lower, so one company can't take all the top spots.

Search

We match the provider, GPU model, form factor, billing type, availability and instance name. Matching is partial and case-insensitive. Everyday words work too, so "interruptible" finds spot and "sold out" finds out of stock.

Transparency and funding

  • Ads and sponsors: Paid placements sit at the top of the list and are always labeled as sponsored content. Sponsorship never influences the organic ranking itself.
  • Affiliates: Affiliate links are marked. We may earn a commission if you click them, but commissions never affect the order.
  • Prices: Shown in USD, converted at daily reference rates where a provider publishes in another currency. A month means 720 hours. How we estimate costs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why choose the RTX 3060 Ti?

8GB GDDR6 with Ampere Tensor Cores. Very affordable for basic GPU experimentation.

When is the RTX 3060 Ti not a good fit?

8GB VRAM is too small for modern AI workloads. Subject to Nvidia's consumer EULA, which may restrict data center use.

Are RTX 3060 Ti prices going up or down?

The median on-demand price across providers has fallen about 16% since August 2025, from $0.07 to $0.06/hr per GPU. This reflects the market-wide median, which moves both when providers change prices and when lower or higher priced offerings enter the market.

What size AI models can the RTX 3060 Ti run?

With 8GB of VRAM, the RTX 3060 Ti is mainly limited to small quantized models and lightweight GPU workloads.

How much VRAM does the RTX 3060 Ti have?

The RTX 3060 Ti has 8GB of VRAM. Multi-GPU setups increase total memory, but that memory is not automatically pooled across GPUs.

What is the RTX 3060 Ti's memory bandwidth?

The RTX 3060 Ti has 448 GB/s of memory bandwidth. Higher bandwidth helps with faster data transfer between GPU memory and compute cores.

What data types does the RTX 3060 Ti support?

The RTX 3060 Ti supports 6 precision formats. Training: BF16, FP16, TF32, FP32. Inference: INT4, INT8.

Does the RTX 3060 Ti support NVLink?

No. The RTX 3060 Ti is a PCIe-only GPU with no NVLink, so it is better suited to single-GPU inference and smaller-scale workloads than large distributed training jobs.

How much does the RTX 3060 Ti cost per hour?

RTX 3060 Ti pricing currently ranges from $0.04/hr to $0.33/hr per GPU, depending on the provider, instance type, and billing model.

How much does the RTX 3060 Ti cost per month?

At 720 hours per month, one RTX 3060 Ti can cost between $30.13 to $238.97 per month, depending on the provider. Reserved and spot pricing can lower that further.

Which cloud providers offer the RTX 3060 Ti?

The RTX 3060 Ti is available from 4 cloud providers, including Salad, Database Mart, Theta EdgeCloud. Pricing and availability vary by region and billing model.

Can I rent the RTX 3060 Ti in the cloud?

Yes. We currently track 23 RTX 3060 Ti listings across 4 cloud providers:

Billing type Listings Avg $/GPU/hr
On-demand 10 $0.09/hr
Reserved 7 $0.20/hr
Spot 6 $0.06/hr
