What it costs to rent a NVIDIA RTX 2080
The NVIDIA RTX 2080 is a Turing-architecture budget NVIDIA GPU with 8GB of GDDR6 memory and 448 GB/s of memory bandwidth, released Q3 2018. It is built for budget inference, batch jobs and experimentation.
Renting one currently costs between $0.04 and $0.08 per GPU-hour across the 3 cloud providers we track, with a median of $0.04. The cheapest live rate is $0.04/hr from Vast.ai (On-demand), and hosting one pays about $0.05/hr on Salad while it is running. All rates below are normalised to a single GPU per hour so providers with multi-GPU nodes compare like-for-like.
Where to rent the RTX 2080
How we rank
The median is one provider, one vote: each provider contributes the median of its own on-demand listings, then the headline is the median across providers — so no single marketplace or hyperscaler sets the price alone. Below two providers we show the range instead.
Default order is relevance, weighed the way a buyer would: price per GPU first, lightly blended with total node cost; on-demand preferred over spot and reserved when prices are close; established clouds edged above marketplaces; in-stock, recently-checked offers above stale ones; and no single provider is allowed to crowd the top. Click a column to sort by the raw numbers. No paid placements — ranking is never sold.

Earn by hosting the RTX 2080
How this is worked out
“Renters pay” is the median live rate for this GPU on that marketplace — the median, not the floor, because the cheapest listing is one host undercutting everyone. “You earn” is that figure less the platform’s cut.
“Per day” is a ceiling: 24 hours, every hour rented, which no host achieves — scale it by the utilisation you expect. A card sitting idle earns nothing.Fees marked as published come from the platform’s terms; the rest are our estimates, labelled on each row.
