## Verdict

**Dedicated servers and old cards by the month at LeaderGPU. Per-second billing and lower H100 and H200 prices at GPUBank.**

LeaderGPU fits EU teams that want a full bare-metal box for weeks or months, with 17 GPU models from GTX 1080 Ti to H200 and card, PayPal or SEPA payment. On the monthly rate it is close to GPUBank on the A100 SXM, at $0.99 against $0.95, but GPUBank is 22 % cheaper on the H100 SXM and 48 % cheaper on the H200. Short use costs more at LeaderGPU: rentals are prepaid by the day at minimum on current servers, and servers are assigned by hand after a fraud check during Dutch office hours. GPUBank bills by the second, includes all traffic and takes crypto.

Score over 28 points: GPUBank ahead on 14, even on 6, LeaderGPU ahead on 8.

## Questions

### Is GPUBank cheaper than LeaderGPU for an H100?

Yes. LeaderGPU rents an 8x H100 SXM server at EUR 11900 per month, which is $2.37 per GPU-hour at 1.1460 USD per EUR. Its daily rate works out to $4.12. GPUBank charges $1.85 per GPU-hour, billed per second, for one GPU or up to 8.

### Can I rent a LeaderGPU server by the hour?

Not on current bare-metal servers. They are prepaid by the day, week or month, and per-minute billing exists only on some older configurations. GPUBank bills per second with no minimum.

### Does LeaderGPU accept crypto?

No. Its refund policy states that Bitcoin is no longer accepted. It takes Visa, Mastercard, American Express, PayPal and SEPA transfer. GPUBank is paid from a USD balance topped up in Bitcoin, USDT, Ethereum and more than a dozen other coins.

### How fast can I get a LeaderGPU server?

Servers are assigned by hand after a manual fraud check of the payment, on weekdays from 9:00 to 18:00 CET, so weekend orders are delayed. On 29 Sep 2026 the 8x H100 server was available from 8 Oct and the 8x A100 SXM from 16 Oct. GPUBank provisions on demand.

### Which is better for a long, fixed job on older GPUs?

LeaderGPU can be. Its 8x RTX 3090 NVLink server costs EUR 999 per month, and it rents A40, A10, T4 and Gaudi 2 servers that GPUBank does not list. You get the whole bare-metal server, with no hypervisor.

### Are these prices with or without VAT?

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