Newer generations of the same size

Same family letter and size in a newer generation, ranked by price. “vCPU per $” uses vCPU as the performance proxy — newer chips usually add more, so it is a floor.

Public AWS list prices (USD), refreshed nightly (catalog 2026-09-22). RI and Savings Plan rates are effective hourly (upfront amortised over the term) and are charged for every hour of the term. Excludes taxes, data transfer and storage. How these numbers are sourced and checked. Not affiliated with Amazon Web Services.

List price is the ceiling. Your bill is the floor.

TruCost reads your actual AWS usage and tells you which of these commitments you should really buy, what your idle capacity costs, and where every rupee of the bill goes. Thirty minutes on your own data.
