Tev1 4B Experimental.
1× Nvidia GeForce GTX 1650 · $0.049/hr.
Most-aggressive quantisation we have a working recommendation for. Lower precision = less VRAM = cheaper hardware, at a small accuracy cost.

Cheapest hardware per quantisation.
Each row is one quantisation tier (the same weights compressed differently). Lower precision → lower VRAM → cheaper hardware, at the cost of small accuracy loss. $/hr is the cheapest rate on offer now. A multi-card setup uses a real instance of that size when one is rented; otherwise it is the single-card rate times the count.

Rent the GPU instead of paying per token.
For an open-weights model like Tev1 4B Experimental, you can rent a GPU and serve inference yourself. The math: cheapest GPU rental × 730 hours/month. Power is included in a rental's hourly price.
Assumes the GPU runs 24/7 at ~85% utilisation. If your traffic is bursty, you'll pay less for the API and probably more for the GPU (idle hours still cost rental). The breakeven analysis lives on the Self-host vs API breakeven tool.
