How we sort results
Default ranking
Our algorithm weighs five factors to find the most relevant matches for you:
- Price: We blend total hourly price with price-per-GPU to balance affordability and value.
- Specs: We favor offers with higher CPU, RAM, and GPU Memory.
- Billing: We favor on-demand billing for simplicity and flexibility over spot instances, reservations, and custom quotes.
- Location: We blend both datacenter proximity and provider HQ location. Datacenter location matters for latency, while HQ location matters for compliance and support.
- Provider diversity: Each time a provider appears in the list, their subsequent offerings are ranked a little lower, so one provider's offerings don't crowd out the top positions.
Sorting and filtering
Click any column header to sort by that column. Use the filters above the table to narrow results by billing type, GPU count, vCPUs, or RAM. Custom sorting resets the default relevance ranking.
Transparency and funding
Ads and sponsors: Any paid placements are fixed at the top and clearly labeled as sponsored content.
Affiliates: Any affiliate links will be indicated to you as well. We may earn a commission if you click them, but this never influences the ranking order.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why choose the RTX 5000?
16GB GDDR6 with NVLink (112 GB/s). Turing professional GPU for visualization and moderate compute.
When is the RTX 5000 not a good fit?
16GB VRAM and Turing architecture are limiting. For AI work, newer Ada Lovelace professional GPUs are a much better choice.
Are RTX 5000 prices going up or down?
On-demand pricing has increased by about 22% since June 2025, from $0.54 to $0.66/hr per GPU.
What size AI models can the RTX 5000 run?
With 16GB of VRAM, the RTX 5000 is best for 7B-class models in 4-bit or 8-bit quantized form, and smaller models in FP16.
How much VRAM does the RTX 5000 have?
The RTX 5000 has 16GB of VRAM. Multi-GPU setups increase total memory, but that memory is not automatically pooled across GPUs.
What is the RTX 5000's memory bandwidth?
The RTX 5000 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 5000 support?
The RTX 5000 supports 3 precision formats. Training: FP16, FP32. Inference: INT8.
Does the RTX 5000 support NVLink?
Yes. The RTX 5000 supports NVLink with 112 GB/s of bidirectional bandwidth. This helps accelerate multi-GPU communication.
How much does the RTX 5000 cost per hour?
RTX 5000 pricing currently ranges from $0.60/hr to $0.82/hr per GPU, depending on the provider, instance type, and billing model.
How much does the RTX 5000 cost per month?
At 720 hours per month, one RTX 5000 can cost between $432.00 to $590.40 per month, depending on the provider. Reserved and spot pricing can lower that further.
Which cloud providers offer the RTX 5000?
The RTX 5000 is available from 2 cloud providers: OVHcloud, Paperspace.
Can I rent the RTX 5000 in the cloud?
Yes. We currently track 4 RTX 5000 listings across 2 cloud providers:
