How to request GPU quota increase in Google Cloud

I've been trying to request an increase in my GPU quota for Compute Engine since Google Cloud says I have 0 when I try to launch an instance. I upgraded my account, but I can't seem to figure out what I need to do to increase my quota. I've looked at many tutorials, but the cloud platform has changed ever since those tutorials were released.

Does anyone have an idea how to do this? Thanks!

In the Machine type section, click Customize to see advanced machine type options and available GPUs. Click GPUs to see the list of available GPUs. Select the number of GPUs and the GPU model that you want to add to your instance.

Similar to what Prateek said in the comments of Tuxdude's answer, the correct way to do is the following way:

Go to the quotas IAM & Admin Quotas page.

IAM & Admin Quotas page

If you look at the filtering options, you'll have "Quota type" and "Metric". Click on the "Quotas type" button and select "All quotas". This is important because since you currently have no GPU quota, the services containing the NVidia K80 GPUs will not show up. You can scroll down and find the service you want, which is a GPU in a specific zone. You don't have to, but you can now click on the Metric button, unselect all metrics, and click on the one that says NVidia K80 GPUs. Those services won't show up unless you click on "All quotas", though.

I would recommend that you go to Compute Engine -> VM Instance page and start the VM Instance creation process. On that page, you should check which GPU will be the cheapest for you (it depends on your location).

If you do not see the metric tab in your Quota page as shown below,

go to this url by changing the project name with id,

https://console.cloud.google.com/iam-admin/quotas?project=project-name-id-here&folder&organizationId&metric=GPUs%20(all%20regions)&location=GLOBAL

There you will find the GPU quota and you can select the checkbox and press edit quotas and proceed.
