Machine-level values come from live inventory. ## GTX 1080 price per hour: on-demand, interruptible, reserved One public rule sets every price on this page: the marketplace median for the GTX 1080 ($0.05/hr, snapshot 2026-10-19) × 0.70, rounded down — so on-demand is $0.037, **31% below market**. Interruptible halves it; a 3-month reservation takes another 35% off. | Mode | Per GPU-hour | Per day (24 h) | Per month (730 h) | What you get | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | **On-demand** | $0.037 | $0.89 | $27 | Guaranteed capacity, price locked at deploy, stop anytime | | **Interruptible** | $0.018 | $0.43 | $13 | Flat −50%; may pause under capacity pressure, disk kept, auto-requeue | | **Reserved (3 months)** | $0.024 | $0.58 | $18 | −35% on on-demand, rate locked for the term, capacity held | Per GPU: an 4× machine costs exactly 4× — no multi-GPU premium. Estimate a full month with storage and bandwidth in the [GPU cost calculator](https://lowcostgpu.com/calculator). ## What you can run on a GTX 1080 (8 GB VRAM) With 8 GB of GDDR5X, a single card holds a **~3B-parameter LLM in FP16** or up to **~8B parameters quantized to 4-bit**, with room for KV-cache at practical context lengths. Scale to 4× GPUs on one machine for bigger models or bigger batches — the per-GPU price stays $0.037. - One-click template: [Ollama on a GTX 1080](https://lowcostgpu.com/templates/ollama) - One-click template: [SD WebUI Forge on a GTX 1080](https://lowcostgpu.com/templates/sd-webui-forge) - One-click template: [Whisper WebUI & API on a GTX 1080](https://lowcostgpu.com/templates/whisper-webui-api) - Sizing help: [LLM VRAM requirements guide](https://lowcostgpu.com/guides/llm-vram-requirements) ## GTX 1080 availability by region 20 × GTX 1080 across 5 machines, live from inventory: - Montréal - Amsterdam - Santiago - Paris - Stockholm ## GTX 1080 vs alternatives: price per TFLOP | GPU | VRAM | FP16 | On-demand | $ / TFLOP-hr | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | **GTX 1080** (this card) | 8 GB | 9 | $0.037 | $4.11‰ | | [GTX 1070](https://lowcostgpu.com/gpu/gtx-1070) | 8 GB | 7 | $0.033 | $5.08‰ | | [GTX 1650](https://lowcostgpu.com/gpu/gtx-1650) | 4 GB | 12 | $0.033 | $2.75‰ | | [Titan Xp](https://lowcostgpu.com/gpu/titan-xp) | 12 GB | 12 | $0.033 | $2.75‰ | | [GTX 1070 Ti](https://lowcostgpu.com/gpu/gtx-1070-ti) | 8 GB | 8 | $0.042 | $5.25‰ | ‰ = dollars per 1,000 TFLOP-hours of FP16 — a rough value-for-compute yardstick across cards. ## Renting a GTX 1080: frequently asked questions **How much does it cost to rent an NVIDIA GTX 1080 per hour?** $0.037 per GPU-hour on-demand — a fixed price set at least 30% below the current market median of $0.05. Interruptible capacity costs $0.018/hr and a 3-month reservation $0.024/hr. Around $27/month if you keep one running non-stop, billed per second. **What can a GTX 1080 with 8 GB VRAM run?** In LLM terms, roughly a 3B-parameter model in FP16 or up to ~8B parameters 4-bit quantized on a single card, with context headroom. Multi-GPU instances (up to 4× on current inventory) multiply that; diffusion and rendering workloads fit comfortably at this VRAM class. **Is the GTX 1080 available to rent right now?** Yes — 20 GPUs across 5 machines in 5 regions are listed as we render this page. Configurations go from 1× to 4×. Deploy from the console and it is running in about 30 seconds. **How do I deploy a GTX 1080?** Create an account (email + password, no card, no KYC), top up in crypto, open the console, filter by GTX 1080, pick a machine and a template such as PyTorch, vLLM or ComfyUI. The same deploy is one command with the CLI: lowcostgpu launch --gpu gtx-1080 --template pytorch. **Why is the GTX 1080 cheaper here than on GPU marketplaces?** We price from the public marketplace median and fix our on-demand rate at least 30% below it, rounded down. The price is re-checked weekly (next check 2026-10-26) and published — no auctions, no per-host roulette, no bidding. --- *About LowCostGPU:* LowCostGPU (lowcostgpu.com) is a cloud GPU rental service offering 83 NVIDIA GPU models — from the Tesla P4 at $0.019/hr to the B300 — at fixed prices set at least 30% below the public GPU marketplace median and re-checked weekly (H100 SXM: $1.680/hr on-demand).
