What it costs to rent an NVIDIA RTX 3080

The NVIDIA RTX 3080 is an Ampere-architecture desk-side NVIDIA GPU with 10GB of GDDR6X memory and 760 GB/s of memory bandwidth, released Q3 2020. It is built for development, inference and smaller training runs.

Renting one currently costs between $0.06 and $0.28 per GPU-hour across the 3 cloud providers we track, with a median of $0.12. The cheapest live rate is $0.06/hr from Salad (Spot), and hosting one pays about $0.23/hr on Clore.ai 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 3080

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.

Earn by hosting the RTX 3080

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.
