    Hi Brian,

    The Pricing Calculator is showing you monthly price based on minimum cluster size of 8 vCPU.

    To see equivalent number when purchasing Reservation, please add it to your cart, view the cart, and then update the quantity to 8. Your cart should appear similar to below:

    Hi,

    There are two ways to pay for reserved instance - upfront or monthly. Upfront you pay the whole price upon purchase. Monthly you pay monthly fee for the next 3 years. The end price does not differ no matter the choice. In your screenshot you have chosen monthly payments.
