Google Cloud offers a wide range of GPUs to accelerate everything from AI deployment to 3D visualization. These use cases are now even more affordable with the price reduction of the NVIDIA T4 GPU. As of early January, we’ve reduced T4 prices by more than 60%, making it the lowest cost GPU instance on Google Cloud

With mixed precision support and 16 GB of memory, the T4 is also a great option for ML workloads. For example, Compute Engine preemptible VMs work well for batch ML inference workloads, offering lower cost compute in exchange for variable capacity availability. We previously shared sample T4 GPU performance numbers for ML inference of up to 4,267 images-per-second (ResNet 50, batch size 128, precision INT8). That means you can perform roughly 15 million image predictions in an hour for a $0.11 add-on cost for a single T4 GPU with your n1 VM.
