Generate a batch of short videos (6-hour estimate)
Cost = current lowest hourly rate × duration. This is an estimate of compute rental only — storage, bandwidth and image fees are excluded, and spot prices change at any time. For long runs, compare monthly plans.
How to choose
Video generation uses far more VRAM than still images — 24GB is the entry line, and long clips want 48GB or more
The RTX 5090's large VRAM and bandwidth make a clear difference in video generation
Script batch jobs to shut down automatically when finished, so nothing idles overnight
FAQ
Which GPU should I use for video generation?
Start with RTX 4090 (24GB); for long or high-resolution video move to RTX 5090 / L40S 48GB / A100 80GB. Insufficient VRAM is the most common cause of failure.
How do I estimate video generation cost?
Hourly rate × actual generation time. This page shows a 6-hour reference total; the real figure depends on resolution and frame count.
