The two cheapest on-demand rate cards for the NVIDIA L40, side by side on every card they both list: GPU.ai vs Thunder Compute.
As of , one provider prices the NVIDIA L40 on-demand as a whole 8-GPU node: $10.00 per node-hour (CoreWeave, L40, $1.25 per GPU). 8 GPUs at the cheapest on-demand rate ($0.78 on GPU.ai, from) come to $6.24 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.
8 GPUs for a month, 24/7 (730 h) cost from $4,555 at the listed on-demand rate of GPU.ai ($0.78 per GPU-hour); the job bar above ranks every provider for a job of your own.

Get quotes for the L40. 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).
