What you get after setting up on Vast.ai
Scroll down: the machine assembles itself part by part, from the motherboard to the GPU.
6 machines in Sweden. Here are their numbers.
The same machines we write about. The snapshot refreshes hourly; machine IDs and addresses are hidden, the GPU stands in for the ID.

Rate: our price per GPU per hour; the client sees it with the marketplace markup. Uptime: the reliability score reported by Vast.ai. The 31-day total includes $0.52 from machines no longer in the fleet.
Who writes this
Viktor. I put my first machine on Vast.ai in 2024; today there are 6, and they are the ones in the table above.
Everything in the articles was first tested on my own rigs, including dropped GPUs and support chats at three in the morning. So besides the steps, the guides list what will go wrong.
The move takes three to seven days
