Estimate from listed rates. CPU, storage, transfer and tax may be extra. Live capacity is not verified.
As of , the cheapest listed rate for the NVIDIA L40S is $0.38 per GPU-hour on Lium (community, Multi-GPU machines). The cheapest on-demand rate is $0.63 on CloudRift. Across 40 providers, the median rate card — each provider’s cheapest on-demand rate, community capacity and marketplace floors out — is $1.42 per GPU-hour, and the middle half of those rate cards sits between $0.99 and $1.95. Between rate cards, on-demand rates for the same card run from $0.63 (CloudRift) to $3.54 (Lightning AI), 5.6× apart across 40 providers. By market, the cheapest listed rates are $0.97 spot (Verda), $0.38 on community capacity (Lium, floor), $0.63 on-demand (CloudRift), $0.57 reserved with no stated term (CloudRift), $0.81 on a 1-year commitment (Seeweb) and $0.89 on a 3-year commitment (Civo). On a single rate card, Atlantic.Net lists it at $1.67 on-demand, $1.65 on a 1-year commitment and $1.58 on a 3-year commitment: a commitment is paid whether the GPU runs or not. To buy, the median new-condition listing is $8,288.75 across 5 sellers. With 48 GB of VRAM, that is $0.013 per GB of memory per hour at the cheapest on-demand rate and $0.030 at the median.
The two cheapest on-demand rate cards for the NVIDIA L40S, side by side on every card they both list: CloudRift vs GPU.ai.
As of , 3 providers price the NVIDIA L40S on-demand as a whole 8-GPU node: from $11.47 per node-hour (Gcore, 8×L40S PCIe, Bare Metal GPU Clusters, $1.43 per GPU) to $18.00 (CoreWeave, L40S, $2.25 per GPU), 1.6× apart. 8 GPUs at the cheapest on-demand rate ($0.63 on CloudRift) come to $5.04 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 4, 1 prices it in units of 2 — the rate table below names each quote's own unit.
8 GPUs for a month, 24/7 (730 h) cost from $3,679 at the listed on-demand rate of CloudRift ($0.63 per GPU-hour); the job bar above ranks every provider for a job of your own.
In October 2026 the L40S like-for-like median did not move. Over 12 months, 0%.
Renting the L40S for a year or more?
The cheapest committed L40S rate each provider publishes, by term. A commitment is paid whether the GPU runs or not.

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 L40S. 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).

At the cheapest on-demand rate ($0.63/hour on CloudRift), that purchase price equals about 13,157 GPU-hours of rental — roughly 18 months of continuous use. The lower community rate ($0.38 on Lium) is left out: that capacity can be reclaimed or moves with supply. Power, hosting, cooling and idle time are not counted.
