New – EC2 Instances (G5) with Nvidia A10G Tensor Core GPUs

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.

Are the prices at the private price list considerably cheaper?

When 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.

I thought it is possible to send them your own GPU and they would put it in your server.
