NVIDIA RTX 3080 cloud GPU rental
Rent an NVIDIA RTX 3080 cloud GPU from $0.184 per hour with 10 GB of GDDR6X at 760 GB/s of memory bandwidth. FastInfra bills pods per minute with no commitment, so a one-hour experiment costs $0.184 and you stop paying the moment you delete the pod. Run 1 to 2 GPUs per pod, connect over SSH or JupyterLab, and see the exact price before you deploy.

RTX 3080 specs and pricing
The NVIDIA RTX 3080 is a consumer Ampere GPU with 10 GB of GDDR6X at 760 GB/s of memory bandwidth. On FastInfra it is a good fit for dev, test, and lightweight inference. As a rule of thumb, one RTX 3080 holds the weights of a model of about 4B parameters at 16-bit precision, or about 16B with 4-bit quantization, after leaving room for the KV cache.
The RTX 3080 runs on the Value tier, lower-cost community hosts, at $0.184 per GPU-hour.
RTX 3080 price per hour by GPU count
Live FastInfra prices per pod-hour. Pods bill per minute, so you pay only for the minutes a pod exists.
| Pod size | Total VRAM | Value / hr | Month (730 h, lowest) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1× RTX 3080 | 10 GB | $0.184 | $134 |
| 2× RTX 3080 | 20 GB | $0.368 | $269 |

Which LLMs fit on the RTX 3080?
GPUs needed to hold the model weights with about 20% of VRAM left for the KV cache. Rule of thumb only: long contexts and big batches need more.
| Model size | Examples | FP16 / BF16 | 8-bit | 4-bit |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 7–8B | Llama 3.1 8B, Qwen3 8B, Mistral 7B | 2 GPUs | 1 GPU | 1 GPU |
| 12–14B | Gemma 3 12B, Qwen3 14B, Phi-4 | Needs more GPUs | 2 GPUs | 1 GPU |
| 27–32B | Gemma 3 27B, Qwen3 32B | Needs more GPUs | Needs more GPUs | 2 GPUs |
| 70B | Llama 3.3 70B | Needs more GPUs | Needs more GPUs | Needs more GPUs |

About the Ampere architecture
Ampere brought third-generation Tensor Cores with BF16 and TF32 support, which modern training code relies on, and the A100 added Multi-Instance GPU partitioning. Ampere cards remain a dependable, lower-cost option for fine-tuning, inference and research, though they lack the FP8 support of Ada, Hopper and Blackwell.
Only need inference?
If you want to call an open model such as Llama, Qwen, DeepSeek or GPT-OSS rather than manage a server, the pay-per-token inference API is often cheaper than keeping a GPU busy around the clock. It is OpenAI-compatible and uses the same account and wallet as your pods. Browse every model with live prices.

RTX 3080 rental — frequently asked questions
How much does it cost to rent an NVIDIA RTX 3080 per hour?
$0.184 per GPU-hour on demand. Billing is per minute while the pod exists, so 24/7 use for a 730-hour month costs about $134 per GPU at the lowest on-demand rate. Prices sync from live capacity and are shown before you deploy.
How much VRAM does the NVIDIA RTX 3080 have?
10 GB of GDDR6X at 760 GB/s of memory bandwidth. The chip is rated at up to 320 W. A pod with 2 GPUs gives 20 GB of combined VRAM for tensor- or pipeline-parallel workloads.
What size LLM can I run on an NVIDIA RTX 3080?
Roughly 4B parameters at FP16 or BF16, 8B at 8-bit and 16B at 4-bit on a single GPU, reserving about 20% of VRAM for the KV cache and activations. Mixture-of-experts models need memory for all experts, not only the active ones. Long contexts and large batches need more headroom.
Is the NVIDIA RTX 3080 billed per hour or per minute?
Per minute. The hourly rate is divided by 60 and charged for every minute the pod exists. Attached volumes bill per GB-month and continue while a pod is stopped; delete the pod to stop all charges. There is no minimum term or reservation fee.
How do I rent an NVIDIA RTX 3080 on FastInfra?
Create an account, add prepaid credit, open the GPU configurator and choose the RTX 3080, the tier, the GPU count, a container template and storage. The configurator shows the hourly and monthly price, then deploys a pod you reach over SSH or JupyterLab within minutes.
Can I rent multiple RTX 3080 GPUs in one pod?
Yes, up to 2 per pod. The price scales linearly: 2 GPUs cost $0.368 per hour on Value.
Deploy an RTX 3080 in minutes
Price the exact pod, storage and template in the configurator, add credit, and connect over SSH or JupyterLab. Billed per minute, no commitment.
