Published cloud GPU rates across 2 tracked providers with valid current listings, normalized to USD per GPU per hour. Index-eligible on-demand rows are separated from reservation and marketplace rows.
As of 2026-08-10, the L40S community marketplace median is $0.79/GPU/hr from 1 marketplace provider, so it is not a statistical median. The current page tracks 21 valid listings across 2 providers.
L40S is usually a value-oriented inference and graphics option, not a direct replacement for H100 training clusters.

These providers publish the GPU resource charge, while CPU and memory are billed separately. No total is estimated, and these rows never enter the on-demand index median.

These are published rates, not transaction prices. Large buyers routinely pay materially less through committed contracts, volume discounts, and reserved capacity. gpuprice.fyi is built for developers comparing rental options, not for settlement-grade transaction indices. Read full methodology →
As of 2026-08-10, the community marketplace median L40S price is $0.79/GPU/hr across 1 marketplace provider; the reliable on-demand index median is still pending.
As of 2026-08-10, published L40S cloud GPU listings range from $0.69-$1.70/GPU/hr across 21 valid listings.
The L40S index normalizes each listing to USD per GPU per hour, selects each provider's cheapest current eligible on-demand row, and calculates the median across providers.
The L40S page reports published list prices, not negotiated transaction prices; reservation, marketplace, and non-comparable billing modes are labeled separately from the core on-demand median.
L40S is tracked as PCIe in gpuprice.fyi; listings with unclear form factor are not forced into SXM or PCIe medians.
