RTX A2000 cloud GPU pricing

5 listings across 5 providers. Cheapest published rate: $0.050/GPU/hr at SimplePod. Sorted by per-GPU hourly price. Every row links to the provider's own published price.

WHAT IS THE RTX A2000

The A2000 is a workstation card, not a gaming one: 70 W, low-profile, ECC memory. In cloud catalogs it appears in dense, power-efficient inference nodes - the professional cousin of the 3060, trading raw speed for reliability features and form factor.

WHAT IT IS GOOD AT

Low-power inference
Efficient serving of small models where ECC and density matter.
Professional visualization
The design target - certified drivers for CAD and media applications.
LLM serving
Marginal - the 12 GB variant fits a quantized 13B, slowly.

BUYING RTX A2000: WHAT THE PANEL SAYS

At the current floor, one RTX A2000 running around the clock costs about $37 a month (730 hours of on-demand arithmetic). Compare the alternatives below before committing - the same budget often buys more than one chip class.

RTX A2000 VS THE ALTERNATIVES

RTX A2000 vs RTX 3060
Same memory class at half the power with ECC, at lower clocks. For always-on small inference the A2000's efficiency wins; for bursty work, the 3060's speed.
RTX A2000 vs T4
Same 70 W class and inference niche, one generation newer. The A2000 is the better card where both are listed.

RTX A2000 PRICING FAQ

What is the cheapest RTX A2000 cloud GPU right now?
The cheapest published RTX A2000 rate on the panel is $0.050 per GPU-hour at SimplePod (RTX A2000 x 1, Not published). Every price links to the provider's own published rate.
How much does a RTX A2000 cost per hour?
Across 5 providers tracked today, published per-GPU hourly rates for RTX A2000 run from $0.05 to $0.44, with a median of $0.13. Committed-use and reserved rates are excluded; everything shown is on-demand.
How many providers rent RTX A2000 GPUs?
5 providers publish 5 distinct RTX A2000 configurations on Compute Cafe. 1 of those rows were reported in stock by the provider's live endpoint at last observation.
Are RTX A2000 prices going up or down?
Over the 53 days Compute Cafe has tracked the panel, the RTX A2000 floor is falling: $0.120 to $0.050/GPU/hr (-58.3%). Daily snapshots are public in the repo, so the trend is auditable.
What does a RTX A2000 cost per month?
At the current floor of $0.050/GPU/hr, a RTX A2000 running 24/7 costs about $37 per month (730 hours of on-demand arithmetic on the cheapest published rate). Committed-use contracts can price lower; the panel tracks on-demand rates only.
What is the A2000 for?
Dense, low-power professional inference and visualization. It appears in GPU clouds as an efficient small-model serving option, not a training card.
