Analysis
The g6e.16xlarge is a gpu instance instance in the g6e series with 64 vCPUs and 512 GiB of memory on AMD EPYC 7R13 (up to 2.6 GHz), which makes it memory-heavy at 8 GiB of memory per vCPU.
Within the same generation and size, the g6.16xlarge on AMD EPYC 7R13 costs $3.40/hour, 55% less ($3,052 a month).
Running it in N. Virginia instead of Tokyo saves $2,491 a month per instance: $7.58/hour against $10.99/hour, a 45% spread. It is not offered in Canada Central, São Paulo, Ireland, London, Singapore and Sydney, so plan around that if you need a presence there.
It carries 1 GPU with 48 GB of GPU memory, so most of the price is the accelerator rather than the CPUs. It has local instance storage (1 x 1900 GB NVMe SSD), which is fast but lost when the instance stops. Network: 35 Gigabit.
It is size 6 of 8 in the g6e series. Stepping up to the g6e.24xlarge gives 96 vCPUs and 768 GiB for $5,467 more a month. Dropping to the g6e.12xlarge saves $-2128.27850 a month. Unit price is not flat across the series ($0.1184 to $0.4652 per vCPU-hour), so the size changes the rate you pay.
