GPU dedicated servers · NVIDIA Ampere · by the month

RTX 3090, 3080, 3070 GPU serversFive Ampere GPUs, each priced with its machine.

Our RTX 3090, 3080, 3070 GPU servers are bare-metal machines rented by the month, with the full GPU passed through to your own operating system. Choose one of five RTX 30 GPUs with 8 to 24 GB of memory, on an Intel Xeon or AMD EPYC machine, from $209.93 a month complete.

  • PCIe passthrough
  • Unmetered port
  • 4 cities
  • No contract

The price on each GPU below is the complete server: processor, memory, disks, the port and one IPv4 address, plus the GPU's own monthly line. Pick the GPU by the memory your work needs, then change anything else in the configurator.

The five GPUs

RTX 3070 to RTX 3090: each one as a complete server

All five share the Ampere architecture, the driver and the feature set: 3rd-generation Tensor cores, 2nd-generation RT cores, PCIe 4.0. What separates them is memory size and memory bandwidth. Start from the memory you need and stop at the first GPU that holds it.

Each price is the cheapest machine that takes that GPU, as the configurator opens it. The button opens that machine with the GPU already selected; other processors, more memory, larger disks and a faster port are priced there. Bucharest builds are billed in euros, and the configurator shows that price when you choose the city.

Sizing

Which RTX 30 GPU holds your model

For inference the first question is memory, not speed. A model's weights take parameters times bytes per parameter, and the GPU needs a quarter to a half more on top for the KV cache and the runtime. The table applies that rule to each memory size on this page.

The RTX 3080 here is the 10 GB model

It is the original RTX 3080 with 8,704 CUDA cores. NVIDIA later sold a 12 GB version with 8,960 cores under the same name, and many listings quote its memory. Size against 10 GB: an 8B model at 8-bit loads with little room left for context, and a 13B model at 8-bit does not load at all.

24 GB is the RTX 3090, and it stacks

The RTX 3090 is the only RTX 30 GPU with 24 GB. Our larger Xeon machines take up to 3 of them, 72 GB in total, which llama.cpp or vLLM can split a model across. Two hold a 70B model at 4-bit, tightly. For one GPU with more memory, see every GPU we fit; for model-by-model plans, LLM servers.

Platforms

Which machine each GPU goes in, and the PCIe link it gets

Every RTX 30 GPU has a PCIe 4.0 interface. On the Intel Xeon machines it runs at PCIe 3.0; the AMD EPYC machine gives the RTX 3080 a full PCIe 4.0 link. Once a model or a scene is loaded into GPU memory the link barely matters. It matters for training loops that stream batches from system memory every step.

Machine prices are the cheapest build of each line without a GPU. RTX 30 servers can be ordered in New York, Miami, San Francisco and Bucharest. Amsterdam machines are not offered with these GPUs. Location sets latency to your users and the data-protection law that applies; data centers describes each building.

Workloads

What RTX 30 series servers run well, and where they stop

Private LLM inference

One RTX 3090 serves a 13B model at 8-bit with room for context, or a 30B model at 4-bit with a short one, behind your own API with Ollama, llama.cpp or vLLM. Nothing you send leaves your machine.

Rendering

Blender Cycles renders on CUDA or OptiX, and the RT cores accelerate ray tracing. Install the operating system your renderer needs and render overnight on a flat monthly price.

Game servers and remote desktops

The GeForce driver runs DirectX, Vulkan and OpenGL as a desktop does. Run a game server, a cloud gaming host or a remote workstation with a dedicated GPU behind it.

Video encoding

Each GPU has one NVENC encoder for H.264 and HEVC and one NVDEC decoder. NVIDIA allows up to 8 encode sessions at once per system on GeForce GPUs, with driver 550.54.14 or later.

  • No AV1 encoding. RTX 30 decodes AV1 but cannot encode it in hardware. AV1 encoding starts with the RTX 40 series: see RTX 40 servers.
  • No ECC memory. These are GeForce GPUs. For runs of several weeks without checkpoints, or software certified only for professional GPUs, pick a workstation or compute GPU on GPU servers.
  • No full fine-tuning of large models. QLoRA fine-tuning of a 7B to 13B model fits in 24 GB. A full fine-tune of the same model needs several times that memory.

Delivery and terms

How fast it is online, and what the monthly price covers

  1. About 30 minutes

    The GPU is already in a racked machine

    Nothing to fit: the server is installed and handed over. Instant servers lists what is racked right now.

  2. 4 to 24 hours

    We fit the GPU to the machine you configured

    A technician installs the GPU, builds the disk array and installs the operating system. Extra memory or other drives go in during the same visit.

Included
Processor, memory, disks, one IPv4 address and an unmetered port. Nothing counts traffic in either direction.
Access
Root or administrator on your own operating system, and the server's iLO or iDRAC console on a separate management network.
Setup
$29 once for a GPU fitted to order. A racked machine ordered as it stands has no custom setup charge.
Term
One month by default, no contract. 3, 6 and 12-month cycles save up to 15%.
Support
Chat answered in seconds by an AI assistant that can check your account and your server, and a person the moment you ask. Part replacement windows are on the support page.

Every timeline starts once payment and fraud review clear. Most orders clear within a couple of hours; a first order on a new account can take longer.

Answers

RTX 3090, 3080 and 3070 server questions

How much does an RTX 3090 dedicated server cost?

A complete RTX 3090 server starts at $309.93 a month. That is the GPU at $239 plus the cheapest machine that takes it: Intel Xeon E5-2630L, 6 cores, 2.00 GHz · 32 GB DDR3 · 2 × SATA 500 GB (RAID 1) · 500 Mbps. The cheapest RTX 30 build is the RTX 3070 at $209.93. A GPU fitted to order adds a one-time setup of $29.

Is the RTX 3080 in your servers the 10 GB or the 12 GB version?

The 10 GB version, with 8,704 CUDA cores and 760 GB/s of memory bandwidth. A complete RTX 3080 server starts at $229.93 a month. If your model needs 12 GB, take the RTX 3080 Ti, which has 12 GB on a 384-bit bus.

Can I put more than one RTX 3090 in one server?

Yes. Our larger Xeon machines take up to 3 RTX 3090s, 72 GB of GPU memory in total, and the configurator shows the most each machine takes. Each GPU is its own monthly line, so the price grows by the GPU's figure for each one you add.

Is an RTX 3090 server good for AI and LLMs?

For inference and QLoRA fine-tuning, yes. Its 24 GB holds a 13B model at 8-bit with room for context, or a 30B model at 4-bit with a short one. It has no ECC memory, so for long training runs without checkpoints a compute GPU is the safer choice.

How fast is an RTX 30 series server online?

About 30 minutes after your order is approved when a machine with that GPU is already racked; those are listed on the instant servers page. When we fit the GPU to the machine you configured, allow 4 to 24 hours.

Is the GPU shared or virtualised?

No. The machine is rented to one account and the GPU is passed straight through to your operating system. There is no hypervisor, no vGPU profile and no time-slicing, and you install the NVIDIA driver and CUDA version you want.

Can an RTX 30 series GPU encode AV1?

No. RTX 30 GPUs decode AV1 but encode only H.264 and HEVC, on one NVENC encoder per GPU. Hardware AV1 encoding starts with the RTX 40 series.

Where are your RTX 30 series servers located?

In New York, Miami, San Francisco and Bucharest, on Server Room's own network. The machines that take these GPUs are not offered with them in Amsterdam.
