NVIDIA A30 Price and Performance for AI and ML Workloads

The AI revolution is no longer on the horizon—it’s here, transforming industries from finance to healthcare to logistics. Behind this innovation lies a race for computational power, and NVIDIA’s A30 GPU has become a compelling choice for organizations and developers seeking the right balance between cost, performance, and scalability.

In 2025, as machine learning and deep learning workloads continue to spike, more startups and enterprises are opting for dedicated GPU servers. But the common question remains: Is the NVIDIA A30 the right fit? And if yes, what does it cost and how does it perform compared to other GPUs like A100 or H100?

This blog walks you through a deep dive into the NVIDIA A30 price in India, its performance for AI/ML workloads, benchmarks, ideal use cases, and how Cyfuture Cloud offers scalable and cost-effective GPU hosting for businesses looking to power their AI engines reliably and affordably.

Why the NVIDIA A30 Matters in 2025

When NVIDIA introduced the A30 as part of its Ampere architecture lineup, it was designed to bridge the gap between affordability and high-performance computing for AI inference, training, and mixed workloads.

Unlike the A100 or the newer H100, the A30 is optimized for enterprises that need power but don’t necessarily want to shell out ₹12–20 lakhs for a single unit. The A30 instead provides:

Faster AI inference speeds

Energy-efficient performance

Lower thermal profile (ideal for colocation or dense hosting)

Compatibility with PCIe servers

For startups, AI/ML dev teams, and cloud-based SaaS providers, this makes the A30 a sweet spot—especially when paired with managed hosting or cloud server environments.
