SaladCloud Free GPU Trial: Cheap RTX 3090/4090 Pricing & Limits
Distributed GPU cloud using idle consumer GPUs at ultra-low prices
What is SaladCloud
SaladCloud is a distributed GPU cloud that uniquely leverages idle consumer GPUs (RTX 3090, 4090, etc.) from gamers and miners worldwide.
Because it uses idle resources, prices are extremely low: RTX 3090 from $0.10/hr, RTX 4090 from $0.19/hr — 90%+ cheaper than AWS/GCP. Ideal for batch inference, image generation, and latency-tolerant workloads.

Free Tier & Pricing
Free credits: Trial credits for new users.
Popular GPU pricing:
- RTX 3090: from $0.10/hr
- RTX 4090: from $0.19/hr
- Per-second billing
Note: Distributed consumer GPUs may have node interruptions. Best for fault-tolerant batch jobs, not real-time API services.

Editor's note
Editor's note: If you only need API inference, you may not need a GPU rental. Compare free quota, rate limits, and latency first.
China Access Guide
SaladCloud requires proxy from China. Global node distribution may cause higher latency.
For cheap GPUs in China, try AutoDL. For model APIs, use API aggregator with direct China access.

FAQ
Q: Is SaladCloud reliable?
A: Individual nodes may interrupt, but the platform auto-reschedules. Good for batch jobs, not real-time services.
Q: How does it compare to Vast.ai?
A: Similar concept (idle GPUs). SaladCloud is cheaper but less stable. Vast.ai has more high-end GPU options.
Q: What's it best for?
A: Batch Stable Diffusion generation, model evaluation, data processing — anything that doesn't need real-time responses.
