When I needed GPU instances, I asked my long-term bare metal hoster (hetzner.de) and they sent me a private price list.
My theory is that publicly advertising GPU instances tends to attract people who want to convert stolen credit cards into crypto mining power. I mean it's the same reason why the 3090 == GPU most suitable for crypto has been sold out for a year.
That's also in line with the fact that I had to sign a voucher stating that I will NOT do any kind of crypto hosting / mining / processing on any of their servers before I got that GPU instance.
- iamcreasy 5y agoAre the prices at the private price list considerably cheaper?
- nh2 5y agoWhen was that? I also asked Hetzner for GPU instances after they took down the ones from the website, and a price list was not available at the time, but for a sufficiently sized order they said they would provide me some.
