T4 Cloud GPU Pricing
Compare T4 prices across 4 cloud providers. On-demand from $0.20/hr.
T4 market snapshot
verifiedCheapest T4 confirmed in stock right now: $0.20/hr on Theta EdgeCloud.
■ near its 6-month low — at $0.20/hr the T4 floor price is near its 6-month low — 6-month range $0.20–$0.20/hr.
Bottom line: a relatively good time to rent — the floor price is near its 6-month low.
Most reliably in stock over the last 30 days: Theta EdgeCloud.
30-day reliability depth
GPU Finder does not treat availability as a static yes/no flag. For T4, current stock badges are paired with a 30-day reliability score computed from AvailabilityRecord history, measuring how much covered time each tracked row was reported available.
Strongest reliability signals here: Theta EdgeCloud (100%, 30d covered).
Caveat: scores stay hidden until a row has at least 48covered hours, and some provider APIs expose coarse capacity levels instead of exact stock counts. Use the score as historical depth beside current availability, not as a guarantee that a GPU will still be allocatable when you click through.
About the T4
The NVIDIA T4 is the original inference-optimized datacenter GPU and remains one of the most widely deployed accelerators in cloud infrastructure. Its 70W power draw and single-slot PCIe form factor make it trivially easy to provision at scale. While outperformed by every newer GPU, the T4 still handles production inference for INT8-quantized models efficiently, and its ubiquity means rock-bottom pricing.

Cloud Pricing Context
T4 pricing starts as low as $0.27/hr on budget providers and about $0.35/hr on Google Cloud. Its low TDP keeps per-instance costs minimal. The T4 is often the default GPU for inference endpoints on managed ML platforms like Vertex AI and SageMaker.
Best For
- Production inference for INT8/FP16 models under 7B parameters
- Cost-sensitive batch processing and embedding generation
- Always-on inference endpoints where low power draw reduces TCO
- Entry-level GPU workloads on managed ML platforms
Price History & Comparison
Spot pricing decision guide
Treat spot as a risk-adjusted capacity decision, not just a cheaper number.
per GPU-hour
71% below on-demand floor
fake/equal spot rows suppressed
median $0.40/GPU-hr
Cheapest trusted spot capacity is on Azure; 0 providers currently report spot-adjacent stock.
30-day reliability context is still sparse for the trusted spot rows on this GPU. See the 30-day reliability depth module for the broader availability history.
The discount is visible, but availability, reliability, or volatility argues for more caution.
Good fit: checkpointed batch jobs, flexible training, and experiments that can restart. Avoid for production serving, deadline-bound runs, or jobs that cannot tolerate eviction.
Source caveat: Runpod exposes explicit spot fields; Vast is labeled interruptible/bid-floor. Lambda is treated as on-demand-only unless a verified spot field is added.
