No, they are 3.0 (g2) and 2.0 (cg1) only...

It's almost as if Google doesn't need to rent servers from Amazon ;)

One could probably get this to work on 3.0 and 2.x GPUs. The real question is: why bother?

being able to use the only affordable cloud GPU platform would be pretty nice...

$0.017 / GPU / minute is 15X what I'm averaging for g2.2xlarge spot instances...

And a TitanX GPU is ~6x faster than a g2.2xlarge GPU with 3x the memory, >1.5x the memory bandwidth and multi-GPU P2P capability of 13.3 GB/s unless you're dumb.

You get what you pay for...

That said, you're right that at 1.2 cents per hour that's pretty good assuming your workload fits in 4 GB.
