# GPUBank vs Denvr Cloud

> Denvr Cloud, run by Denvr Dataworks of Calgary, rents NVIDIA, Intel and AMD accelerators from its own data centers in Calgary and Houston, as on-demand VMs or reserved bare metal. Its H100 SXM costs $2.30 per GPU-hour in its docs and $2.45 on its pricing page; GPUBank charges $1.85. Denvr offers a Canadian region, GH200 and Gaudi 2, and states SOC 2 Type 2; GPUBank costs less, publishes one price per GPU and takes crypto from $25.

- Denvr Cloud: https://www.denvr.com/, headquartered in Calgary, Canada
- GPUBank: https://gpubank.io, GPU cloud billed per second at an all-in hourly price (vCPU, RAM, NVMe, one IPv4 and traffic included), prepaid balance topped up in crypto.

## Verdict

**A Canadian region and a wider accelerator mix at Denvr. Lower prices and a $25 start at GPUBank.**

Denvr suits teams that need compute in Canada, want GH200, Gaudi 2 or A100 MIG slices, or plan reserved InfiniBand clusters with sales support. For the two GPUs both of us rent on demand, GPUBank costs 20 to 30 % less per GPU-hour, using Denvr's lower docs prices. Denvr's own pages disagree on its H100 and A100 prices and on whether it bills by the second, minute or hour. New Denvr accounts are reviewed manually and top up at least $250 by card or invoice; GPUBank needs only an email and password and takes crypto from $25.

Score over 27 points: GPUBank ahead on 10, even on 11, Denvr Cloud ahead on 6.

## Questions

### How much does a Denvr H100 cost?

It depends on the page. Denvr's docs billing page lists the H100 SXM at $2.30 per GPU-hour, its pricing page at $2.45, and the H100 product page text says $2.10/hr. GPUBank charges $1.85 per GPU-hour, with one published price.

### Does Denvr bill by the second?

Its docs say one-second increments, but its pricing and product pages say per minute and its AI Compute page says per hour. GPUBank bills by the second, from the end of the health check.

### Does Denvr accept crypto?

Denvr does not mention crypto. Pay-as-you-go accounts top up by card through Stripe, with a $250 minimum, and larger accounts are invoiced. GPUBank is paid from a USD balance topped up in Bitcoin, USDT, Ethereum and more than a dozen other coins, from $25.

### Does Denvr have GPUs in Canada?

Yes. Denvr runs MSC1 in Calgary and HOU1 in Houston, which suits buyers bound to Canadian data residency. GPUBank has no Canadian region; it runs Paris, Frankfurt, Ashburn and Singapore.

### Can I rent a B200 or H200 on demand at Denvr?

No. The H200 is reserved only, and the B200 is on pre-sale with no published price. GPUBank rents the B200 SXM at $4.15 and the H200 SXM at $2.49 per GPU-hour on demand.

### Are these prices with or without VAT?

Without. Every price on this page excludes VAT and sales tax, for Denvr Cloud and for GPUBank, so the two columns compare like for like. Tax is added at checkout according to where the buyer is based.
