Renting the RTX A6000 for a year or more?
The cheapest committed RTX A6000 rate each provider publishes, by term. A commitment is paid whether the GPU runs or not.
| Term | Per GPU-hour | Provider | vs its on-demand |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1-year | $0.71 €0.63 listed · ECB 1.1193 on October 23, 2026 read | Seeweb | −15% ($0.83) |
| Other commitment commit | $0.35 read | Hyperstack | — |
Across every card, a 1-year rate runs a median −15% against the same provider’s on-demand rate (7 providers); a 3-year rate −30% (5 providers). Every committed rate, card by card.
Get quotes for the RTX A6000. A person at GPU Economy reads your request and passes it to up to three providers that list a rate for the card, the cheapest listed first; the quotes come from them, directly to you.
We may be paid a fee if a request becomes a contract; who receives it follows the listed rates, never a fee, and it changes no published rate or the Price Index (how, privacy).
As of , the cheapest listed rate for the NVIDIA RTX A6000 is $0.33 per GPU-hour on RunPod (community, Community Cloud). The cheapest on-demand rate is $0.35 on Thunder Compute. Across 18 providers, the median rate card — each provider’s cheapest on-demand rate, community capacity and marketplace floors out — is $0.61 per GPU-hour, and the middle half of those rate cards sits between $0.54 and $0.82. Between rate cards, on-demand rates for the same card run from $0.35 (Thunder Compute) to $2.50 (RunComfy), 7.1× apart across 18 providers. By market, the cheapest listed rates are $0.39 spot (Verda), $0.33 on community capacity (RunPod), $0.35 on-demand (Thunder Compute), $0.35 reserved with no stated term (Hyperstack, from) and $0.71 on a 1-year commitment (Seeweb). On a single rate card, Seeweb lists it at $0.83 on-demand and $0.71 on a 1-year commitment: a commitment is paid whether the GPU runs or not. With 48 GB of VRAM, that is $0.007 per GB of memory per hour at the cheapest on-demand rate and $0.013 at the median.
The two cheapest on-demand rate cards for the NVIDIA RTX A6000, side by side on every card they both list: Thunder Compute vs GPU.ai.
As of , one provider prices the NVIDIA RTX A6000 on-demand as a whole 8-GPU node: $7.56 per node-hour (Paperspace, A6000, Paperspace, $0.94 per GPU). 8 GPUs at the cheapest on-demand rate ($0.35 on Thunder Compute) come to $2.80 an hour, where a provider rents 8 to one account and they need not share a unit. A unit price is what the provider quotes for the 8 GPUs together; whether it also rents one is not part of the quote. 1 prices it in units of 2 — the rate table below names each quote's own unit.
How it is computed
What we measure
Publicly listed rental prices for 79 GPU models (NVIDIA and AMD) at 99 providers — 1167 current quotes across seven markets — and the retail price of the cards.
Where it comes from
Each provider's own pricing page or API; retail from reseller pages. Every figure links back to its source.
How it is normalised
Node prices are divided by GPU count, per-second rates multiplied out, a price listed in another currency shown as listed, beside its USD figure at the dated official rate (ECB; the Bank of Russia for RUB and VND). A reservation published as a total for its term is divided by the hours in that term, 8,760 per year.
What is modelled, not measured
One figure: cost per million output tokens, a listed rate divided by the throughput NVIDIA published for that card, published with the run that produced it in /token-cost.json, not on this page. Risk is not a model — it is read off the market a quote is from.
What we never do
Never estimate a price, never convert a currency silently, never publish a number a reader cannot verify on the linked page.
1167 quotes · 99 providers. Seven files under CC BY 4.0; history is stored append-only and never rewritten.
