Compute Engine · $3700.22/mo (130 GB RAM, 12 vCPU)
Google Cloud's a2-ultragpu-1g at $3700/mo is a specialized GPU instance with significant hidden costs (egress, commitment discounts, cluster fees). Several dedicated server and cloud alternatives offer comparable or superior CPU/RAM at 5-15% of the price, though they lack GPU acceleration and have different use cases.
18 vCPU, 96GB RAM, 600GB SSD, unlimited traffic for $52.92/mo (24-month term) - eliminates GCP egress charges and commitment complexity entirely.
Caveat: No GPU; quoted price requires 24-month prepay; fair usage policy may throttle sustained high bandwidth; ticket-only support on base tier.
18 AMD EPYC vCPU, 96GB RAM, 900GB NVMe, unlimited traffic for $90.88/mo (24-month term) - NVMe storage and better CPU than base tier.
Caveat: No GPU; 24-month prepay required; fair usage policy applies; ticket-only support baseline.
24-core AMD EPYC Genoa, 128GB RAM, 2TB SSD, unlimited traffic for $214.92/mo (24-month term) - dedicated hardware with more cores than GCP instance.
Caveat: No GPU; 24-month prepay locks in price; EUR pricing discrepancy noted (EUR199 vs EUR169 reported elsewhere); verify current invoice before committing.
16-core Ryzen 9 7950X3D, 128GB DDR5 RAM, up to 3.84TB NVMe for $99/mo - bare-metal performance without GPU markup.
Caveat: PLACEHOLDER PRICE NOT CONFIRMED - verify before publishing; 79 EUR setup fee (raised 2026); traffic overage beyond 20TB EU pool; VAT excluded from listed price.
12-core Xeon, 128GB RAM, 1.92TB SSD at promo price $166.7/mo - dedicated server with no egress surprises.
Caveat: Promo price (regular EUR 192.94/mo); VAT excluded; delivery 1-5 days; renewal rates typically higher; no GPU.
