This is a great deal, 4x 1080 for $1700 CAD/month if you need it the whole month or for longer:

But the best deal with regards to GPUs is to buy your own and put it in your office.

Hetzner has a single 1080 for 99 EUR a month: https://www.hetzner.de/dedicated-rootserver/ex51-ssd-gpu

I've used hetzner, works great and a tiny fraction of the cost. But you have to manage nodes yourself and bandwidth isn't great.

With Kubernetes and docker, it has never been easier to run it yourself.

Of course, if you need to use it _all_ the time (or need to heat the space). The whole point of cloud computing is to share those resources with others when you don't need them.

Right, but after 3-4 months of full time use (and it's not hard to use these full-time, since models can take days to train), you've spent more than if you just bought one outright.
