Analysis
The g6e.xlarge is a gpu instance instance in the g6e series with 4 vCPUs and 32 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 g6f.xlarge on AMD EPYC 7R13 costs $0.2375/hour, 87% less ($1,185 a month). The other variants are the g6.xlarge at $0.8048.
Running it in N. Virginia instead of Tokyo saves $612 a month per instance: $1.86/hour against $2.70/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 250 GB NVMe SSD), which is fast but lost when the instance stops. Network: Up to 20 Gigabit.
Per vCPU it is one of the dearer gpu instance types: 97% of the 78 current types in the family cost less than its $0.4652 per vCPU-hour. The premium mostly pays for the accelerators. On demand it is $1.86/hour in US East (N. Virginia), or $1,359 for a 730-hour month.
