GPUBank vs Clore.ai
Clore.ai is a peer-to-peer GPU marketplace registered in the Czech Republic, where independent hosts list mostly consumer NVIDIA cards at their own prices, rented as Docker containers per minute, plus a fixed-term bare metal catalogue of data-center GPUs. Its prices are live marketplace listings: the only H100 SXM listed was $40 per day, or $1.67 per GPU-hour before fees, and it was already rented; GPUBank charges $1.85 all-in. Clore wins on consumer-card floor prices and catalogue width; GPUBank offers uniform data-center hosts, persistent disks and per-second billing.

The verdict
Cheapest consumer cards and a wide catalogue at Clore.ai. Predictable data-center instances at GPUBank.
Clore.ai prices are set by hosts and change all day; on the check date an RTX 4090 started at $0.10 per GPU-hour and an RTX 5090 at $0.27, below GPUBank's $0.23 and $0.48, before Clore's 5 % renter fee. Data-center cards are nearly absent from the marketplace, and Clore sells them as bare metal paid upfront for 14 days to 5 years. GPUBank rents the same data-center GPUs on demand, bills per second from the health check, keeps persistent disks and includes IPv4 and traffic. Both are paid in crypto.

09The right fit
Different needs. A clear choice.
What Clore.ai does better
- RTX 4090 from $0.10 and RTX 5090 from $0.27 per GPU-hour
- 109 GPU models, from GTX cards to GB200 and MI325X
- Bare metal clusters of 8 to 1,000 GPUs with 3.2 Tbps InfiniBand
- Marketplace hosts in 79 countries
- Minimum deposit of $10 in stablecoins, none for BTC
Choose GPUBank if
- H100 SXM on demand at $1.85, with no term and no fee on top
- Per-second billing with no 6-hour rental minimum
- Persistent disks that survive a stop and move between regions
- Public IPv4 and all traffic included, no NAT port forwarding
- Uniform data-center hosts, a status page and a Terraform provider
Moving from Clore.ai takes an afternoon.
Clore marketplace orders are stateless Docker containers from public images, so the same image runs on GPUBank. Container storage is lost when an order ends, so copy data out first.
- 1Copy results out of the running Clore container with rsync or scp before you terminate the order.
- 2Launch the same GPU on GPUBank with a persistent disk, so data survives a stop.
- 3Run the same Docker Hub image or pick the matching template, then open ports directly on the instance's public IPv4.
# 1. a GPU and a disk on GPUBank gpubank launch --gpu h100-sxm --region eu-paris --disk data # 2. copy your data from the old machine rsync -azP old-host:/workspace/ root@<new-ip>:/workspace/ # 3. run the same image or template ssh root@<new-ip> 'cd /workspace && ./start.sh'
A few things you might be wondering.
For consumer cards, often. On the check date an RTX 4090 listing started at $0.10 per GPU-hour, against $0.23 at GPUBank, before Clore's 5 % renter fee and order fee. These are live host listings that change all day, and many hosts show low reliability scores.
Rarely. The marketplace held one single-GPU H100 SXM server, listed at $40 per day, and it was rented. Clore's bare metal H100 needs at least a month at $2.62 per GPU-hour, paid upfront. GPUBank rents the H100 SXM on demand at $1.85, per second.
Yes. Clore takes CLORE, BTC, USDT and USDC into a prepaid balance. GPUBank takes Bitcoin, USDT, Ethereum and more than a dozen other coins, from $25. Neither takes cards.
No. Orders cannot be paused, and container storage is lost when the order ends; Clore's FAQ suggests external storage. GPUBank keeps a persistent disk at $0.03 per GB-month while an instance is stopped.
Clore, if you can commit. Its bare metal catalogue sells 8 to 1,000 GPUs with 3.2 Tbps InfiniBand on terms from 14 days to 5 years, paid upfront. GPUBank rents up to 8 GPUs per instance with no term.
Without. Every price on this page excludes VAT and sales tax, for Clore.ai and for GPUBank, so the two columns compare like for like. Tax is added at checkout according to where the buyer is based.

What we could not verify (8)
- Legal entity name, founding year, funding: not published on the pages read (company page only says a registered company in the Czech Republic)
- Marketplace prices are a live snapshot of host-set listings on 2026-09-29 11:32 and change continuously; rows record the lowest USD-priced listing per GPU label, not a stable list price
- Prices for listings accepting only CLORE or BTC (84 of 2,804 servers) were not converted to USD; hosts can set different USD targets per currency (e.g. H100 NVL server 115374: 50 USD/day in USDT/USDC vs 100 USD-equivalent in CLORE)
- Mixed-GPU rigs (142 servers) excluded from per-model price rows
- Egress/bandwidth charges: not published (none mentioned); storage product "Clore Storage" price not published
- No status page, SOC 2, ISO 27001 or DPA found
- H100 bare-metal SKU #27 (Thailand) does not state SXM or PCIe; several Slovenia SKUs carry spec text with US locations (Texas, Colorado, Maryland and Iowa, New York)
