Per hour on Windows, in each type's cheapest region. Typical spot: per pricing run of the last 7 days, the cheapest zone's spot price, averaged, as the finder shows it with that region selected. On-demand: the same region's price. Per vCPU-hour: the spot price, or without spot the on-demand price, per vCPU. Every region is under Prices by region.

The G5 instance family, generally available since November 12, 2021, features up to 8 NVIDIA A10G Tensor Core GPUs and 2nd generation AMD EPYC processors. These instances are designed for graphics-intensive and machine learning workloads, offering up to 100 Gbps of networking bandwidth. They can be configured with up to 7.6 TB of local NVMe SSD storage and are built on the AWS Nitro System. G5 instances are ideal for applications like video rendering, remote workstations, and machine learning inference and training.
