What it costs to rent a 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 $0.03 and $0.25 per GPU-hour across the 4 cloud providers we track, with a median of $0.12. The cheapest live rate is $0.03/hr from Clore.ai (On-demand), and hosting one pays about $0.12/hr on RunPod 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. Click a column to sort by the raw numbers. No paid placements — ranking is never sold.

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.
