breakeven

20.9 months

Buying a NVIDIA RTX A6000 at today’s street price of $4,731 costs the same as 15,298 hours (20.9 months) of renting one at $0.309 an hour. Run it less than that and renting is simply cheaper; run it more and the card starts paying itself back — but this is a floor, not a total cost of ownership. It counts only the purchase price against the rental rate, and ignores power, cooling, rack space, networking, depreciation and the cost of tying up the capital, all of which push the real breakeven further out.

A6000 cluster nodes

Multi-GPU configurations, cheapest per GPU-hour first. For distributed training the interconnect matters as much as the rate — an NVLink or InfiniBand node and the same count of loose PCIe cards are not the same machine.
