There are two questions: which platform pays you best to rent out your compute, and which hardware pays for itself fastest.

Step 1

Where to rent it out

The marketplaces and networks that pay you: revenue share, payout, hardware requirements, effort.

What to buy

Which consumer or prosumer GPU earns the most, and how many months to break even.
