A consumer GPU against a data center card, one Blackwell and one Volta: 16 GB GDDR7 against 32 GB HBM2, 7% more memory bandwidth on the RTX 5080, and NVLink 300 GB/s on the V100 where the RTX 5080 is PCIe only.

Price comparison
Median price per GPU per hour by billing type, with the cheapest listing under it.
| Billing | RTX 5080 | V100 | Difference |
|---|---|---|---|
| On-demand | $0.29 /GPU/hr from $0.18 | $0.97 /GPU/hr from $0.11 | 3.4x more expensive on V100 |
| Reserved | -- /GPU/hr from $0.23 (3 mo) | $1.51 /GPU/hr from $0.12 (3 mo) | |
| Spot | -- /GPU/hr from $0.14 | $0.43 /GPU/hr from $0.09 |
Heads up: A provider's own page may quote a different figure, for example on tax, region or a promotion. A monthly-only plan shows a derived hourly rate. Medians are across providers, one vote each, so a large catalog does not outweigh a small one. No median for reserved and spot on the RTX 5080: we only show one when at least 3 providers list the GPU on that billing type. Verify before provisioning. More on how we price.
