Microsoft Azure's K80 based N-series are the best that I've seen so far for by the hour instances. They're currently in preview availability[1].
Compared to the best AWS GPU, the Azure K80s are (a) cheaper and (b) many times more performant for the purposes of deep learning.
Hopefully this lights a fire under AWS to become more competitive with their GPU range.
