About this series
Weekly listed on-demand rates for the NVIDIA L40S, one point per ISO week: the number of providers listing it, the median of each provider’s cheapest region, and the cheapest listed rate with who listed it. Marketplace floors are left out. Nothing here is written by hand.
Our own hourly scrape — the series every other page of this site uses — has 10 weeks, the blue line in the chart below. Its latest week, the week of : median $1.50 across 37 providers, cheapest $0.63 on CloudRift (source). The grey line is the series reconstructed from a public price catalog: a different panel, read second-hand from a public catalog, and never merged with ours — so its figure for the same week differs, and neither is “the” median.
From the history reconstructed from a public price catalog: between the week of and the week of , the listed on-demand rate went from $1.86 (one provider’s listed rate) to $1.32, the median across 4; the cheapest listed rate in the last week was $0.90 on Cudo Compute (no-kristiansand-1) (source). The panel changed size over the period, so read the two medians as levels, not as one move; the table below compares each provider with itself.

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).
