RenderJuice adds transparent GPU overage pricing, upgrades to RTX 4090/5090s
What happened
Between the Aug 10, 2026 and Aug 17, 2026 captures of RenderJuice's pricing page, Pulse recorded 3 changes: Per-GPU-hour overage rate for topping up beyond included minutes is now explicitly priced ($1.73 Hobbyist, $1.40 Pro, $1.27 Studio); previously the page only said minutes could be topped up with no rate disclosed; Underlying GPU hardware upgraded from NVIDIA 3090s to top-tier RTX 4090s & 5090s (up to 48GB VRAM disclosed for the first time), while GPU-minute billing stays pinned to 3090-equivalent. In detail: Team Workspaces and Add-ons & Extensions moved from Studio-only ('Coming Soon') and Pro-exclusive status into the base Hobbyist plan as standard included features; 'Coming Soon' tag dropped from Team Workspaces; Underlying GPU hardware upgraded from NVIDIA 3090s to top-tier RTX 4090s & 5090s (up to 48GB VRAM disclosed for the first time), while GPU-minute billing stays pinned to 3090-equivalent performance for pricing consistency. Pulse files it as a pricing change (feature change, limit raised, price revealed) with a neutral direction. Pulse's latest capture (Nov 9, 2026) lists Hobbyist at $49, Pro at $99 and Studio at $269.
