Consumer · Blackwell architecture

The RTX 5080 pairs 16 GB of GDDR7 at 960 GB/s with 10,752 Blackwell CUDA cores. It is a fast card for SDXL, 7B–8B FP16 inference and video encoding workloads that fit in 16 GB — with FP4 support that 40-series cards lack.

A cost-efficient card for right-sized jobs: batch inference, smaller models, CI pipelines and experiments where a flagship would idle. Per-second billing makes it perfect for short bursts.

## NVIDIA RTX 5080 specs: VRAM, TFLOPS, bandwidth

- **GPU model**: NVIDIA RTX 5080 · **Architecture**: Blackwell (2025)
- **VRAM**: 16 GB GDDR7 · **Memory bandwidth**: 960 GB/s
- **FP16 tensor perf.**: 225 TFLOPS · **FP32 perf.**: 56.3 TFLOPS
- **CUDA cores**: 10,752 · **TDP**: 360 W
- **PowerScore ((RTX 3090 = 100))**: 158 · **PCIe generation**: Gen 5.0
- **Multi-GPU**: 1× – 8× · **Max instance storage**: 4,000 GB NVMe
- **Network up to**: 2,500 Mbps · **CUDA**: 12.4 – 13.0

Bandwidth, CUDA cores, TDP and FP32 are public NVIDIA figures; FP16 tensor is the dense (non-sparsity) number. Machine-level values come from live inventory.

## RTX 5080 price per hour: on-demand, interruptible, reserved

One public rule sets every price on this page: the marketplace median for the RTX 5080 ($0.27/hr, snapshot 2026-09-14) × 0.70, rounded down — so on-demand is $0.186, **30% 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** | $0.186 | $4.46 | $136 | Guaranteed capacity, price locked at deploy, stop anytime |
| **Interruptible** | $0.093 | $2.23 | $68 | Flat −50%; may pause under capacity pressure, disk kept, auto-requeue |
| **Reserved (3 months)** | $0.120 | $2.88 | $88 | −35% on on-demand, rate locked for the term, capacity held |

Per GPU: an 8× machine costs exactly 8× — no multi-GPU premium. Estimate a full month with storage and bandwidth in the [GPU cost calculator](https://powergpu.ai/calculator).

## What you can run on a RTX 5080 (16 GB VRAM)

With 16 GB of GDDR7, a single card holds a **~3B-parameter LLM in FP16** or up to **~24B parameters quantized to 4-bit**, with room for KV-cache at practical context lengths. Scale to 8× GPUs on one machine for bigger models or bigger batches — the per-GPU price stays $0.186.

## RTX 5080 vs alternatives: price per TFLOP

| GPU | VRAM | FP16 | On-demand | $ / TFLOP-hr |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| **RTX 5080** (this card) | 16 GB | 225 | $0.186 | $0.83‰ |
| [RTX 5070 Ti](https://powergpu.ai/gpu/rtx-5070-ti) | 16 GB | 176 | $0.131 | $0.74‰ |
| [RTX 5060 Ti](https://powergpu.ai/gpu/rtx-5060-ti) | 16 GB | 92 | $0.112 | $1.22‰ |
| [RTX 5070](https://powergpu.ai/gpu/rtx-5070) | 12 GB | 123 | $0.112 | $0.91‰ |
| [RTX 5060](https://powergpu.ai/gpu/rtx-5060) | 8 GB | 74 | $0.063 | $0.85‰ |

‰ = dollars per 1,000 TFLOP-hours of FP16 — a rough value-for-compute yardstick across cards.

## Renting a RTX 5080: frequently asked questions

**How much does it cost to rent an NVIDIA RTX 5080 per hour?**

$0.186 per GPU-hour on-demand — a fixed price set at least 30% below the current market median of $0.27. Interruptible capacity costs $0.093/hr and a 3-month reservation $0.120/hr. Around $136/month if you keep one running non-stop, billed per second.

**What can a RTX 5080 with 16 GB VRAM run?**

In LLM terms, roughly a 3B-parameter model in FP16 or up to ~24B parameters 4-bit quantized on a single card, with context headroom. Multi-GPU instances (up to 8× on current inventory) multiply that; diffusion and rendering workloads fit comfortably at this VRAM class.

**Is the RTX 5080 available to rent right now?**

Yes — 97 GPUs across 24 machines in 16 regions are listed as we render this page. Configurations go from 1× to 8×. Deploy from the console and it is running in about 30 seconds.

**How do I deploy a RTX 5080?**

Create an account (email + password, no card, no KYC), top up in crypto, open the console, filter by RTX 5080, pick a machine and a template such as PyTorch, vLLM or ComfyUI. The same deploy is one command with the CLI: powergpu launch --gpu rtx-5080 --template pytorch.

**Why is the RTX 5080 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 2026-09-21) and published — no auctions, no per-host roulette, no bidding.
