Optimized Fin Spacing

The addition of a fourth fan permits more densely packed heatsink fins, increasing cooling potential.

Patented Vapor Chamber

A patented vapor chamber designed with milled pathways allows heatpipes to sink in without flattening, boosting heat dissipation efficiency. This innovative combo maximizes contact surface and improves thermal performance by over 10%.

MaxContact Design

MaxContact is an ASUS-exclusive manufacturing technique that effectively increases the surface area of the GPU heat spreader by 5% for improved thermal efficiency.

Phase-Change GPU Thermal Pad

By melting to effectively fill the gaps between the GPU and the thermal module, a premium phase-change GPU thermal pad provides superior thermal conductivity and enhanced heat dissipation, ensuring optimal performance and longevity for graphics cards under heavy loads.

Unmatched Reliability

Premium Power Delivery

Powerful 50-amp MOSFETs with extra power phases to deliver over 25% more headroom compared to the reference design. This helps ensure enhanced performance, stability and higher overclocking potential.

ASUS GPU Guard & Bracket

ASUS GPU Guard applies adhesive to secure all four corners to reduce the risk of cracks, while a GPU bracket helps ensure uniform mounting pressure and extra stability.

Protective PCB Coating

A protective conformal coating envelops the circuit board to help protect against short-circuits caused by moisture, dust or debris.

Auto−Extreme Technology

An automated manufacturing process that sets new standards in the industry by allowing all soldering to be completed in a single pass, ASUS Auto-Extreme technology reduces thermal strain on components and avoids the use of harsh cleaning chemicals, resulting in less environmental impact, lower manufacturing power consumption and a more reliable product overall.

GPU Tweak III: Effortless GPU Monitoring and Tuning

GPU Tweak III lets you effortlessly fine-tune overclocking settings to achieve peak performance. It includes OC mode & Silent mode toggles, an OC scanner and a Voltage-Frequency Tuner for precise adjustments.

graphics card software VF Tuning

Embedded sensors across the VRMs, chokes and VRAM collect data for the Thermal Map, empowering you to check real-time temperatures in each area and to easily adjust system settings for optimized performance.

graphics card software thermal map user interface

Power Detector+ can detect anomalies across any of the six power pins from the 12VHPWR cable. If a fault is detected, you are immediately notified that the power cable needs to be reseated.

  • Two PWN fan headers on the graphics card PCB

    FanConnect II

    Two PWM FanConnect headers provide additional DIY flexibility. Chassis fans can be directly synced with the card and tuned with a curve that is based on CPU and GPU temperatures, delivering extra intake or exhaust for demanding 3D tasks.

  • Dual BIOS Switch on the rear of the graphics card

    Dual BIOS

    Do you prioritize low core temps or low noise levels? Performance mode lets the fans spin up to keep the card running cool all the time and Quiet mode keeps the same power target and top-end settings while offering a less aggressive fan curve for quieter operation at medium temperatures.

Perfect PSU for the GeForce RTX 50 Series

Patented “GPU-First” Intelligent Voltage Stabilizer

Pair with the ROG Thor III and ROG Strix Platinum Series PSU and enjoy reliable power for your graphics card. GPU-First enhances voltage stability by up to 45%, even during demanding gaming sessions and overclocking scenarios, helping to ensure peak performance for a more consistent gaming experience. Additionally, the integration of a GaN MOSFET boosts power efficiency by up to 30%.

TuttoTech

The ASUS ROG Astral GeForce RTX 5080 OC Edition board is described as ‘the most beautiful custom ever’, with meticulous attention to detail and robust construction. The ROG Astral offers a significant performance boost over the Founders Edition, thanks to the factory overclock and the potential for further overclocking. During gaming sessions and benchmarks, the board maintains temperatures around 61°C, a remarkable achievement considering the high performance.

Hardware Upgrade

We had the opportunity to test the ASUS ROG Astral GeForce RTX 5080 OC Edition video card. This is a very large model, featuring four fans. The list price is very high, but that is not the only drawback of a proposal that, aesthetically speaking, still won us over.

hwcooling.net

The Asus ROG RTX 5080 Astral is the new top model from Asus's offering. This is reflected in the card's top-notch features, design, extreme-sized cooler, and price. It offers a bunch of things you won't find on cheaper cards.
