Default ranking

Our algorithm weighs five factors to find the most relevant matches for you:

  1. Price: We blend total hourly price with price-per-GPU to balance affordability and value.
  2. Specs: We favor offers with higher CPU, RAM, and GPU Memory.
  3. Billing: We favor on-demand billing for simplicity and flexibility over spot instances, reservations, and custom quotes.
  4. Location: We blend both datacenter proximity and provider HQ location. Datacenter location matters for latency, while HQ location matters for compliance and support.
  5. 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 5090?

32GB GDDR7 with Blackwell FP4 Tensor Cores. Highest consumer GPU performance available. Strong for local AI development, LoRA fine-tuning, and image generation.

When is the RTX 5090 not a good fit?

Consumer GeForce GPU. No ECC memory. Subject to Nvidia's consumer EULA, which may restrict data center use. For production workloads, consider the L40S or RTX 6000 Ada.

Are RTX 5090 prices going up or down?

On-demand pricing has increased by about 122% since June 2025, from $0.90 to $1.99/hr per GPU.

What size AI models can the RTX 5090 run?

With 32GB of VRAM, the RTX 5090 can typically run 7B to 13B models in FP16, or larger models in 4-bit quantized form.

How much VRAM does the RTX 5090 have?

The RTX 5090 has 32GB of VRAM. Multi-GPU setups increase total memory, but that memory is not automatically pooled across GPUs.

What is the RTX 5090's memory bandwidth?

The RTX 5090 has 1,792 GB/s of memory bandwidth. Higher bandwidth helps with faster data transfer between GPU memory and compute cores.

What data types does the RTX 5090 support?

Does the RTX 5090 support NVLink?

No. The RTX 5090 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 5090 cost per hour?

RTX 5090 pricing currently ranges from $0.27/hr to $10.37/hr per GPU, depending on the provider, instance type, and billing model.

How much does the RTX 5090 cost per month?

At 720 hours per month, one RTX 5090 can cost between $194.47 to $7,466.72 per month, depending on the provider. Reserved and spot pricing can lower that further.

Which cloud providers offer the RTX 5090?

The RTX 5090 is available from 12 cloud providers, including Runpod, Hostiko, BreezeHost. Pricing and availability vary by region and billing model.
