4x TPUv2 is roughly equal to 4x V100 performance wise.
The price/performance ratio of rented TPUv2 or V100 can't match the price/performance ratio of owning the system if you are doing lots of learning/inference.
If the model fits inside 2080 Ti and the work is not tightly time restricted, 2080 Ti (the whole $2.5k system) should be more economic choice after six months or less (full utilization 24/7).
