| Architecture | NVIDIA, launched 2022 |

| Memory bandwidth | 1,008 GB/s (derived) |
| TDP | 450W |
| Form factor | PCIe, 3-slot |
Specs from the vendor's public product page. Memory bandwidth is marked (derived) because NVIDIA does not publish a bandwidth figure for this part. It is bus width × transfer rate, not a vendor-stated number. See the source.
What fits in 24GB GDDR6X of VRAM
| Model | Precision | Fits? |
|---|---|---|
| Llama 3 8B | FP16 | ~16GB. Fits with a moderate KV-cache budget. |
| Llama 3 8B | INT4 | ~5-6GB. Fits comfortably. |
| Mistral 7B | FP16 | ~14GB. Fits. |
| Llama 3.1 70B | INT4 | ~35-40GB. Does not fit on a single 24GB card. |
Approximate, based on published parameter counts and standard bytes-per-parameter rules of thumb (FP16 ≈ 2 bytes/param, INT4 ≈ 0.5-0.6 bytes/param). Real footprint also depends on KV-cache size and framework overhead.
Good for
A consumer flagship that's genuinely useful for renting by the hour: strong FP16/INT8 throughput and 1,008 GB/s bandwidth make it capable for fine-tuning and inference on models that fit in 24GB, at a lower hourly rate than data-center cards.
Not good for
No ECC memory, no NVLink, and a 24GB ceiling. Not built for multi-GPU training or for any workload where a silent memory bit-flip in a long run is unacceptable. Availability and TDP (450W) also make it a poor fit for dense multi-card racks.

How this price is calculated
All prices on this page are normalized to a per-GPU hourly rate using each offer's authoritative GPU count, so that raw price is divided by the number of GPUs it actually covers; Akash reports its price as already per-GPU, so it is used as-listed. An offer with a missing, zero, or invalid GPU count is excluded entirely rather than published at a guessed rate.
No offers were excluded from this snapshot for a missing or invalid price. 4 offer(s) were dropped as high-side price outliers (more than 3x the model's median rate).
Only the cheapest qualifying offer per provider is shown in the table above. This page regenerates at most once per hour.
Frequently asked questions
How much does it cost to rent a RTX 4090?
Live RTX 4090 rental prices currently range from $0.340 to $0.883 per GPU per hour across 4 providers, with a median of $0.385 per GPU per hour.
Which provider has the cheapest RTX 4090?
RunPod currently offers the lowest RTX 4090 rate on Aquanode's marketplace at $0.340 per GPU per hour in Unknown.
How is the RTX 4090 price calculated?
All prices are normalized to a per-GPU hourly rate using each offer's authoritative GPU count, which the raw price is divided by; Akash reports its price as already per-GPU. Offers whose price can't be safely normalized, or whose rate is an extreme outlier against the rest of the market, are excluded.
How much does an RTX 4090 cost per hour?
Live RTX 4090 rental rates on Aquanode currently range from $0.340 to $0.883 per GPU per hour, with a median of $0.385/hr. See the live table above for current per-provider pricing.
How much VRAM does an RTX 4090 have?
The RTX 4090 has 24GB GDDR6X, with 1,008 GB/s of peak memory bandwidth (derived from the published bus width and transfer rate; NVIDIA does not state a bandwidth figure for this part).
Is renting cheaper than buying?
Renting avoids the upfront hardware cost and lets you match spend to actual usage. A rented RTX 4090 at $0.340/hr only costs money while it's running, whereas buying ties up capital in hardware that keeps depreciating whether it's in use or not. Which is cheaper depends on how continuously you'd run it; short or bursty workloads usually favor renting.
