Is Hetzner's GEX131 the best deal?

GPU Cloud Servers · $989/mo (256 GB RAM, 1920 GB NVMe RAID1)

Best in class

The Hetzner GEX131 is a specialized GPU workstation server with an NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Max-Q 96GB GPU, which is not directly comparable to the general-purpose CPU-only servers and cloud instances in the candidate list. No genuinely equivalent alternatives exist at a lower price point with the same GPU specification.

Before you switch

Verify that the RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Max-Q 96GB GPU is the correct model for your workload (rendering, ML training, professional visualization); consumer/gaming GPUs are not equivalent.
Confirm VAT treatment in your region; Hetzner's listed price excludes VAT, which will increase the effective monthly cost.
Monitor Hetzner's setup fee and pricing adjustment history; recent increases (June 2026 CPX/CCX +2.1x to +2.75x) suggest potential future hikes on GPU lines.
Check traffic overage rates for your region; EU gets 20 TB included, but USA/Singapore regions may have as little as 0.5-1 TB, making overages expensive.
If you need a CPU-only server instead, Contabo's AMD Genoa 24-core at EUR 199/mo (~$214.92/mo) offers better value for general compute, but lacks the GPU.
