Ask HN: Where to get cheap GPU servers?
I know Amazon EC2 has gpu based servers but are there cheaper solutions I can subscribe to on a monthly basis?

I wouldn't use it for super important services.... But, I hear OVH/SoYouStart have decent servers. Their support & uptime are pretty shoddy at the best tho.
All of our machines at Paperspace https://paperspace.com have GPUs and our pricing is much more affordable (disclaimer: I'm one of the founders). Currently only Windows but Linux is coming soon :)
when does Linux come?
Pricing is interesting. As far as I understand your service is remote Desktop but the VMs can also used as dedicated server. Will there be an API?

I'll bite. WHY? the crazy spot price? whats wrong with physical hardware? The "cheapest" option is to just buy some graphics cards; but that doesn't scale well. Is that why you need "GPU SERVERS"? Your question is meaningless without some background information. What are you doing, ML? What's your stack? how much memory do you need?
I am just searching for Servers which have a GPU (linux/windows, CPU, RAM doesn't matter). Is this so difficult to understand?
I need to play around with some "remote rendering" via paraviewweb but can't use my own hardware.

Ok. Have you tried any of the ARM-based hosting providers? A lot of time you'll get bare metal, and most SOCs will have some sort of GPU. Not sure whether it'd be beefy enough to run paraveiw. Here are a couple links, I know nothing about them and can not vouch for their quality: https://raspberry-hosting.com/en, https://www.unixy.net/arm-server/, https://www.mininodes.com/hosted-arm-servers/.
If a hosting company goes through the trouble of installing GPUs, its usually because their customer is trying to use the GPU to accelerate computations, such as those in machine learning. As a result, they charge a hefty premium.
