NVIDIA RTX 5090: rental price history
About this series
Weekly listed on-demand rates for the NVIDIA RTX 5090, 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 9 weeks, the blue line in the chart below. Its latest week, the week of : median $0.70 across 21 providers, cheapest $0.50 on OpenRelay (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 $0.89 (one provider’s listed rate) to $1.19 (again one provider’s listed rate); the cheapest listed rate in the last week was $1.19 on RunPod (IN) (source).
From our own hourly scrape: between the week of and the week of , the listed on-demand rate went from $0.69 (one provider’s listed rate) to $0.70, the median across 21; the cheapest listed rate in the last week was $0.50 on OpenRelay (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.
The lowest listed on-demand rate in the history reconstructed from a public price catalog: $0.89 on RunPod (CA) in the week of November 3, 2025 (source).
The lowest listed on-demand rate in our own hourly scrape: $0.43 on GPU.ai in the week of October 5, 2026 (source).
Renting the RTX 5090 for a year or more?
The cheapest committed RTX 5090 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 RTX 5090. 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).
