Lowest and highest price by billing term
Each row compares one billing term in one currency across the regions that list it. Billing terms and currencies are never mixed or converted, and a stale price is compared only when no fresh one exists.
| Billing term | Lowest | Highest | Compared |
|---|---|---|---|
| On-demand | USD 0.059928 / hrasia-south1 | USD 0.145277 / hrme-central2 | 31 regions |
Every published c2d-standard-2 price
One table per billing term, cheapest first. Monthly figures follow the provider's billing: a vendor monthly cap is not the hourly price multiplied by 730.

Specification notes
- CPU architecture x86-64: Google's CPU platforms page lists C2D under "x86 processors" on AMD EPYC Milan (https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/cpu-platforms, reviewed 2026-10-08).
- Official Compute Engine machineTypes data establishes virtual CPU count and memory. It does not establish physical cores, allocation guarantees, GPU, or local storage; those fields remain unknown.
- Network: up to 10 Gbps egress per VM, the "Default egress bandwidth (Gbps)" for c2d-standard-2 in Google's machine-family docs (https://docs.cloud.google.com/compute/docs/compute-optimized-machines, reviewed 2026-11-01). Google says egress cannot exceed this and actual egress depends on the destination and other factors; ingress is not stated.
