8GB RAM, 200GB SSD for $11.99 is significantly cheaper than linode's 8GB RAM 96GB SSD for $40. Then again all of linode's plans are cheaper than Digital Ocean's

8GB RAM, 200GB SSD for $11.99 is significantly cheaper than linode's 8GB RAM 96GB SSD for $40. Then again all of linode's plans are cheaper than Digital Ocean's. I am curious if this price gap is due to the cheaper ARM SoC ?
