Renting a GPU for use with a service like a runpod has become prohibitively expensive. The last time I rented one was about 3 months ago. The price for a 4090 was $5 per day for 25. The hourly rate for a 5090 was higher than for an A100 about 3 months ago.

Even simpler GPUs like the 5070 Ti are absurdly expensive. Previously, the rental cost was equivalent to the price of the GPU for 2 to 4 years. Nowadays, it's equivalent to just a few months. submitted by /u/More_Bid_2197 [link] [comments]
