An honest read

Both of these lists are real. Pick the column that describes your workload.

Where TensorDock wins

Cheap entry: five dollars and you are running.
Windows VMs available, which most GPU clouds refuse.
Root access and dedicated GPU passthrough rather than a shared container.

Choose TensorDock if you want the lowest possible entry cost, are happy to babysit a balance, and can rebuild a machine if a host disappears.

Where we win

One flat monthly invoice. No meter, no egress fee, no storage line item — the number is fixed for your whole term.
Single-tenant bare metal. The whole machine, with its CPU, RAM and NVMe, not a container beside someone else's job.
No KYC, paid in crypto. An email address, a prepaid balance in BTC, ETH or USDT, and renewals settle themselves.
Live in under 10 minutes, with a 99.9% SLA, 4-hour hardware replacement and engineers on call 24/7.

Choose us if the GPUs stay busy, you want the bill to be predictable, and you would rather not hand over an identity document to rent a computer.

Questions people actually ask

Is GPU Cloud HQ cheaper than TensorDock?

For a machine that stays busy, yes: TensorDock publishes from $2.25/h (SXM5), which is $1,643 for a 730-hour month, against $1,249 flat here for a dedicated H100 — about 24% less. Below roughly 555 hours of use a month, their hourly rate works out cheaper.

What do I lose by leaving TensorDock?

You want the lowest possible entry cost, are happy to babysit a balance, and can rebuild a machine if a host disappears. If that is you, stay with them — we would rather say so than sell you the wrong thing.

Do I need an account or an identity check to compare?

No. Every price on this page is public on both sides. When you do order here, an email address is all we ask for: no ID document, no company registration, no card — the balance is funded in Bitcoin, Ether or USDT.
