Neat - thanks! What I would find helpful is a calculator to estimate the total cost per day, including storage, ram, etc. It would be great if it allowed me to easily answers questions like this one.

Assuming that:

- I game 2 hours a day,

- I need 50 GB for Windows and another 200 GB for games,

- I need 16 GB of ram and an equivalent of RTX 4080,

what would my total cost per day would be?

We have plans to add a calculator in the coming days to make it easier for you to estimate costs. Currently, the console deploy page is the only place where you can see the hourly pricing.

As for finding a GPU equivalent to the RTX 4080, it's challenging as it is a new release and we don't have benchmarks for it yet. However, we can provide pricing estimates for the RTX 5000 and RTX 4000 GPUs.

For the RTX 4000, the approximate cost would be around $24, while for the RTX 5000, it would be around $45. Please keep in mind that these are estimates and the actual pricing may vary. Additionally, the optimization we are planning to implement for IP addresses in the near future will further improve the overall pricing.
