Is Vultr's NVIDIA PCIe A100 (1x) the best deal?

Cloud GPU · $1749.81/mo (120 GB RAM, 12 vCPU, 1434 GB transfer)

Better deals exist

Two OVHcloud options offer significantly better value: the L4-1-GPU at $664/mo undercuts Vultr by 62% with comparable CPU/RAM, and the t2-le-90 at $1285/mo saves $465/mo while adding dual V100S GPUs and more vCPU. DigitalOcean's RTX 6000 Ada is mid-range but lacks the raw GPU memory of the A100.

AI Notebooks / Training / Deploy l4-1-gpu

$664.3/mosave 62%

Lowest cost by far at $664/mo with 20 vCPU (vs 12), 80GB RAM, and NVIDIA Ada L4 GPU; ideal if you don't need A100-class memory bandwidth.

Caveat: Ada L4 has lower peak performance than A100; Windows license adds $0.039/vCore/hour; APAC egress loses free tier after mid-2026.

Cloud GPU t2-le-90

$1284.8/mosave 27%

Before you switch

OVHcloud L4 plan: verify Ada L4 performance meets your ML workload needs vs A100; confirm Windows license cost if required
OVHcloud t2-le-90: dual V100S is older; check if you need A100 memory bandwidth or if V100S suffices
DigitalOcean RTX 6000: only 48GB GPU RAM vs A100's 120GB; verify sufficient for your model size
All OVHcloud plans: confirm APAC egress free-tier end dates and IPv4 address billing impact on total cost
Vultr A100: confirm bandwidth overage rates for your data center and whether 120GB system RAM justifies premium vs alternatives
