Lowest observed rate
Vultr provides the lowest row in this exact evidence set at $0.4710 per GPU-hour. That is a list-price observation, not proof that capacity is rentable now.

Decision readout
What the current evidence says
Price dispersion
The highest row is 0.0% above the lowest. At 160 GPU-hours, selecting opposite ends of the observed range changes the compute line item by $0.00.
Capacity boundary
5 of 5 rates carry separate deployment-eligibility evidence. That signal is not live stock; unknown stays unknown and never inherits confidence from a fresh price.
This page isolates Vultr and A16, so regional configuration choices are compared without mixing another provider's commercial model. The 4 represented regions and 1 distinct normalized prices make this a configuration decision sheet rather than a keyword variant. Market types present: on demand.
Side-specific evidence profile
What each provider contributes to this comparison
The profile below prevents a large catalog from silently overwhelming a smaller one. Counts, regions, access models and observed price bands are stated independently for every provider.
Official configuration set
Vultr
Vultr contributes 5 qualifying configurations and 5 distinct source records. Vultr's observed price band runs from $0.4710 to $0.4710 per GPU-hour, equivalent to $75.36–$75.36 for 160 GPU-hours.
Vultr covers 4 named regions: atl, blr, sgp, sjc. The included node configurations range from 2 to 4 GPUs, with 5 on-demand and 0 spot records.
Vultr has independent deployment-eligibility evidence for 5 of 5 rows. This does not assert live stock. Its latest included price observation is 2026-08-13. GPU models in this exact comparison are A16.

Transparent scenario calculator
Convert hourly rates into your budget
The calculation multiplies GPU count by hours per GPU and the selected normalized rate. It excludes storage, egress, support, taxes, reservations and idle orchestration overhead.
Configuration-level evidence
Rates included in this decision
Every row preserves the source configuration and observation date. Node rates are divided by GPU count to produce the normalized comparison. Equal normalized prices can still represent different regions, node sizes or access conditions.

Comparison discipline
What this page can and cannot decide
It can compare list-price evidence
All included rows use fresh or verified official sources, USD pricing and a common per-GPU-hour unit. The page is regenerated when source evidence changes.
It cannot promise capacity
A fresh price is not inventory. Availability is shown only when a separate exact-configuration source supports it, with its own observation clock and limitations.
It exposes the omitted costs
Networking, storage, support, taxes, commitments, setup work and interruption risk can change total cost. Confirm those terms before purchasing.
It retires weak URLs
This page exists only while automated evidence and uniqueness thresholds pass. One failed cycle removes it from the index; three consecutive failed cycles retire the route.
Adjacent decisions

These links are selected by shared provider or GPU model, so the next page changes one decision variable instead of sending you to a generic article.
