How this list works

The two views

By provider shows one card per company, placed where its best offer ranked. By configuration lists every offer.

Order

What you can rent comes first: in stock, then waitlist, then not reported, then out of stock. Priced offers rank ahead of quote-only, and on-demand ahead of other billing types.

Within a group, five factors set the order:

  1. Location: datacenter proximity, blended with provider HQ.
  2. Price: hourly price, per GPU and in total.
  3. Billing type: reserved ahead of spot, spot ahead of quote-only.
  4. Specs: more VRAM, vCPUs and RAM.
  5. Provider diversity: a provider's repeat rows rank slightly lower, so one company can't take all the top spots.

Search

We match the provider, its country, GPU model, form factor, billing type, availability and instance name. Matching is partial and case-insensitive. Everyday words work too, so "interruptible" finds spot and "sold out" finds out of stock.

Transparency and funding

  • Ads and sponsors: Paid placements sit at the top of the list and are always labeled as sponsored content. Sponsorship never influences the organic ranking itself.
  • Affiliates: Affiliate links are marked. We may earn a commission if you click them, but commissions never affect the order.
  • Prices: Shown in USD, converted at daily reference rates where a provider publishes in another currency. A month means 720 hours. How we estimate costs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why choose the GTX 1080 Ti?

11GB GDDR5X. Strong Pascal consumer GPU. Very low cost. Adequate for basic CUDA development and legacy workloads.

When is the GTX 1080 Ti not a good fit?

No Tensor Cores. FP16 is emulated, not hardware-accelerated. Only viable for legacy CUDA applications or basic cloud rendering workloads.

Are GTX 1080 Ti prices going up or down?

The median on-demand price across providers has risen about 4% since August 2025, from $0.05 to $0.05/hr per GPU. This reflects the market-wide median, which moves both when providers change prices and when lower or higher priced offerings enter the market.

What size AI models can the GTX 1080 Ti run?

With 11GB of VRAM, the GTX 1080 Ti is mainly limited to small quantized models and lightweight GPU workloads.

How much VRAM does the GTX 1080 Ti have?

The GTX 1080 Ti has 11GB of VRAM. Multi-GPU setups increase total memory, but that memory is not automatically pooled across GPUs.

What is the GTX 1080 Ti's memory bandwidth?

The GTX 1080 Ti has 484 GB/s of memory bandwidth. Higher bandwidth helps with faster data transfer between GPU memory and compute cores.

What data types does the GTX 1080 Ti support?

The GTX 1080 Ti supports 2 precision formats. Training: FP16, FP32.

Does the GTX 1080 Ti support NVLink?

No. The GTX 1080 Ti is a PCIe-only GPU with no NVLink, so it is better suited to single-GPU inference and smaller-scale workloads than large distributed training jobs.

How much does the GTX 1080 Ti cost per hour?

GTX 1080 Ti pricing currently ranges from $0.04/hr to $0.06/hr per GPU, depending on the provider, instance type, and billing model.

How much does the GTX 1080 Ti cost per month?

At 720 hours per month, one GTX 1080 Ti can cost between $28.51 to $42.08 per month, depending on the provider. Reserved and spot pricing can lower that further.

Which cloud providers offer the GTX 1080 Ti?

The GTX 1080 Ti is available from 2 cloud providers: Vast.ai, Salad.

Can I rent the GTX 1080 Ti in the cloud?

Yes. We currently track 13 GTX 1080 Ti listings across 2 cloud providers:

Billing type Listings Avg $/GPU/hr
On-demand 5 $0.05/hr
Reserved 3 $0.05/hr
Spot 5 $0.05/hr
