Price changes
- 30 days: No matching dated observations for this comparison.
- 90 days: No matching dated observations for this comparison.
Changes use the geometric mean of price ratios for the same provider, variant, tier, GPU count, instance and region (RunPod's place is where that day's stock sat, so it is not matched). New listings are not counted as price changes. Full ledger on the history hub.

LLM memory estimates for this GPU
These models have an estimated inference footprint within 10 GB at one or more precisions. The scenario uses 4,096 tokens, batch 1, a 16-bit KV cache and 20% runtime headroom. A memory fit does not establish speed or software compatibility.

Models that need more than one RTX 3080
- Qwen2.5 32B at 16-bit needs about 80 GB with the same context and headroom, so at least 8 cards. No provider we track publishes a RTX 3080 node of that size today. At 8 or 4 bit it needs less; the model page recalculates.

When to choose the RTX 3080, and what to pick instead
Start from memory: your model, its context and your batch must fit in 10 GB (the model-fit table above estimates it). Then the RTX 3080 is the right card unless one of these fits your job better.
- Pick the RTX 3090 (24 GB, from $0.20/hr) when the model or its cache does not fit in 10 GB, or finishing sooner is worth paying more: it has 1.3 times the RTX 3080's 16-bit compute.
