RTX 4080 vs RTX PRO 6000: common questions

Is the RTX 4080 or the RTX PRO 6000 cheaper to rent?

On Aquanode's live marketplace the RTX 4080 starts at $0.158/GPU/hr (median $0.368/GPU/hr across 2 providers) and the RTX PRO 6000 starts at $1.00/GPU/hr (median $1.70/GPU/hr across 5 providers). The RTX 4080 is the cheaper of the two at the entry rate, by 84%.

What is the difference between the RTX 4080 and the RTX PRO 6000?

The RTX 4080 has 16 GB of VRAM against the RTX PRO 6000's 96 GB; the RTX 4080 is an Ada Lovelace part and the RTX PRO 6000 is Blackwell (compute capability 8.9 vs 12.0); both run BF16, FP8, INT4 workloads in hardware. On price, the RTX 4080 lists from $0.158/GPU/hr and the RTX PRO 6000 from $1.00/GPU/hr.

Which cloud providers offer the RTX 4080 and the RTX PRO 6000?

2 providers list the RTX 4080 (Akash and Vast.ai) and 5 list the RTX PRO 6000 (Simplepod, Vast.ai, Akash, DataCrunch and Massed Compute), across 2 and 5 regions respectively. Both are available from Akash and Vast.ai.

How much does 1,000 GPU-hours cost on the RTX 4080 vs the RTX PRO 6000?

At the lowest rates listed today, 1,000 GPU-hours costs $158 on the RTX 4080 and $1,000 on the RTX PRO 6000 — a difference of $843 for the same runtime. Rates are per GPU per hour and update hourly.

How this comparison is calculated

Every price is normalized to a per-GPU hourly rate using the same pipeline as every other pricing surface on Aquanode, and only the cheapest qualifying offer per provider is shown. A dash means that provider does not currently list that GPU.

Architecture, compute capability and supported precisions come from each vendor's published datasheet for that generation — not from the marketplace feed. This page regenerates at most once per hour.
