ASUS ROG-ASTRAL-RTX5080-O16G-WHITE

The ASUS ROG-ASTRAL-RTX5080-O16G-WHITE is a graphics card based on the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080, designed for PCI Express 5.0 systems and optimized for high-resolution gaming and AI-accelerated workloads. It features 16 GB of GDDR7 memory running at 30 Gbps with a 256-bit bus, 10,752 CUDA cores, and a rated AI performance of 1801 TOPs. In the factory OC profile, the Boost clock reaches up to 2790 MHz (2760 MHz in standard mode), providing performance headroom without manual overclocking. Display connectivity includes 3×DisplayPort 2.1b and 2×HDMI 2.1b, supporting up to 4 displays simultaneously with HDCP 2.3 and digital resolution up to 7680×4320. Cooling is built on the Quad-Fan Force design: four axial fans create a vertical airflow channel and increase pressure and flow by 20%, while the 3.8-slot heatsink features densely packed fins. A proprietary vapor chamber with milled channels enables efficient heat dissipation, MaxContact technology increases the heatspreader contact area, and a phase-change thermal pad is applied to the GPU. The power delivery system includes additional phases with 50-amp MOSFETs and over 25% power headroom compared to the reference design, with conformal PCB coating protecting the board from moisture and dust. Power is supplied via 1×16-pin connector; an 850 W power supply is recommended, and an adapter cable is included. The card features Dual BIOS, two FanConnect II headers for chassis PWM fans, ARGB lighting with Aura Sync support, and mechanical mounting solutions including GPU Guard and a dedicated retention bracket. The GPU Tweak III utility provides zone-based temperature monitoring for VRM and VRAM, plus Power Detector+ for power management. Dimensions are 357.6×149.3×76 mm, so case and adjacent slot compatibility should be verified.
