EC2 g3 instance prices

The g3 series is a gpu instance EC2 line running on Intel Xeon E5-2686 v4 (Broadwell). It has 3 sizes, from the g3.4xlarge with 16 vCPUs and 122 GiB to the g3.16xlarge with 64 vCPUs and 488 GiB, and it is memory-heavy with a median of 7.6 GiB per vCPU.

In US East the Linux on-demand price runs from $1.14/hour to $4.56/hour, or $832 to $3,329 a month. The median price per vCPU-hour across the series is $0.0712.

Every size costs the same $0.0712 per vCPU-hour, so price scales linearly: doubling the size doubles the bill, and two smaller instances cost exactly as much as one larger one. That makes it easy to start small and resize later without changing your unit cost. All sizes are sold in the same 10 of the 12 regions we track.
