Better GPU Server Deal Than Hetzner? Looking for Alternatives?

Dr. McKay · Nov 8, 2025

Just purchased a Hetzner GEX44 at €184/month. Good specs, but wondering if there are better deals out there.

My specs:

Intel Core i5-13500
RTX 4000 SFF Ada
64GB DDR4 RAM
2x 1.92TB NVMe SSD (RAID 1)
€184/month

Anyone know providers with better price-to-performance? Considering Lambda Labs, Vast.ai, Paperspace, or others?

Yeah, Hetzner prices are hard to beat.

Yes — there are several GPU-server providers that could be better (or at least competitive) than Hetzner, depending on your exact needs (GPU type, usage pattern, region, uptime, cost model). It really depends on what “better deal” means for you: is it cheaper per GPU-hour, better GPU, more flexible billing, or global regions? Here are some strong alternatives + trade-offs to consider, plus tips for picking wisely.

Yeah, GPU pricing is a headache, man. Everybody's talking about Lambda Vast Hetzner, and the price margins are tiny in that space.

Quick tip though, on the cost side: You gotta split your stack. Don't waste money running your database and your general API endpoints on that expensive GPU machine. That's just throwing cash away.

I mean, just move that non-GPU application stuff (your actual site, the front-end) to a reliable Managed Cloud VPS. It's a huge efficiency hack.

I use a provider for my app stack. I run mine on cloudways because they handle all the admin and security patching automatically. It saves me so much admin time, and it frees up the GPU machine for 100% compute.
