Not for AI workloads
Nvidia CMP 170HX cannot run modern AI models.
It is a mining-only card — no display output and severely cut-down PCIe, so model loading and multi-GPU setups do not work. Rental pricing below is still accurate for mining. Browse GPUs that can →

FAQ
Frequently asked.
How much does it cost to rent the Nvidia CMP 170HX right now?
The cheapest current listing is $0.20/hr on Vast.ai, and the median across the 2 providers listing it is $0.30/hr. Running one around the clock for a month (730 hours) at the cheapest rate costs about $147.
What AI models can the Nvidia CMP 170HX run?
The Nvidia CMP 170HX isn't supported by current AI inference runtimes (vLLM, llama.cpp, PyTorch builds for modern CUDA/ROCm), so we don't recommend it for AI workloads. For a similar budget, a 16–24 GB consumer card from the RTX 30 or 40 series is the usual choice.
Why does the Nvidia CMP 170HX cost different amounts on different providers?
Marketplaces such as Vast.ai and Clore.ai list machines from independent hosts who set their own prices, so competition pushes rates down but reliability varies by host. Operator clouds such as Lambda and the hyperscalers charge more for consistent hardware, support and networking. Prices here are per GPU, so they compare directly.
How is the Nvidia CMP 170HX price calculated?
We collect listings from each provider's public API or price page — every 5–10 minutes for marketplaces, up to daily for operator clouds — and show the median hourly price per provider from the last 24 hours, so one unusually cheap listing doesn't set the headline. Details are on the methodology page.
