Analysis
The c8gb.24xlarge is a compute optimized instance in the c8gb series with 96 vCPUs and 192 GiB of memory on AWS Graviton4 (up to 2.8 GHz), which makes it compute-heavy at 2 GiB of memory per vCPU.
Within the same generation and size, the c8g.24xlarge on AWS Graviton4 costs $3.83/hour, 33% less ($1,357 a month). The other variants are the c8i.24xlarge at $4.50, the c8gd.24xlarge at $4.70 and the c8a.24xlarge at $5.17.
Running it in N. Virginia instead of Frankfurt saves $577 a month per instance: $5.69/hour against $6.48/hour, a 14% spread. It is not offered in Canada Central, São Paulo, London, Mumbai, Singapore, Sydney and Tokyo, so plan around that if you need a presence there.
Per vCPU it is one of the dearer compute optimized types: 82% of the 291 current types in the family cost less than its $0.0592 per vCPU-hour. The premium mostly pays for the very fast networking. On demand it is $5.69/hour in US East (N. Virginia), or $4,152 for a 730-hour month.
Looking beyond its own line, 18 of 22 current types with 96 vCPUs and similar memory are cheaper. The cheapest of those is the c6a.24xlarge on AMD EPYC 7R13 at $3.67/hour.
