Inspired by the limitless expanse and beauty of the cosmos, the ASUS GeForce RTX 5080 Republic of Gamers Astral White OC Graphics Card explores a new frontier for gaming by delivering real-time ray tracing and the power of AI to your favorite PC titles. The ROG Astral White OC is the first ROG quad-fan graphics card, which is coupled with a patented vapor chamber, increased heatsink fin density, and a phase-change GPU thermal pad for optimal cooling.
Based on the NVIDIA Blackwell architecture, this GPU features 16GB of GDDR7 VRAM and a 256-bit memory interface, offering improved performance over the previous Ada Lovelace-based generation. The front panel of the card features DisplayPort 2.1 and HDMI 2.1 outputs. The RTX 5080 is not just about high-resolution gaming. Computationally intensive programs can utilize the GPU's 10,752 cores to accelerate tasks using CUDA and other APIs.
Quad-Fan Force
The ROG Astral White features a revolutionary four-fan design, which creates a powerful vertical airflow channel that boosts air pressure by up to 20%. This results in optimal thermal performance that dramatically lowers GPU temperatures and minimizes hotspots, enabling high clock speeds. The addition of a fourth fan means more densely packed heatsink fans for increased cooling potential.
A patented vapor chamber designed with milled pathways allows heatpipes to sink in without flattening, boosting heat dissipation efficiency. The MaxContact design effectively increases the surface area of the GPU heat spreader by 5% for improved thermal efficiency. By melting to effectively fill the gaps between the GPU and the thermal module, a premium phase-change GPU thermal pad provides optimal thermal conductivity and enhanced heat dissipation, ensuring optimal performance and longevity for graphics cards under heavy loads.

FanConnect II
There are two PWM FanConnect headers that provide additional DIY flexibility.
Chassis fans can be directly synced with the ROG Astral White OC.
The chassis fans can also be tuned with a curve that is based on CPU and GPU temperatures, delivering extra intake or exhaust for demanding 3D tasks.

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.
Quiet mode keeps the same power target and top-end settings while offering a less aggressive fan curve for quieter operation at medium temperatures.

Aura Sync
With indirect Aura Sync ARGB lighting, the ROG Astral White OC provides endless possibilities for personalization with color or functional effects. Aura is a one stop shop for controlling anything RGB on your system.
Depending on your platform and accessories, you can use the Aura Sync utility to sync your GPU lights with your keyboard, monitor, motherboard, case lights, and more.
Powerful AI Performance
The GeForce RTX 50-Series GPUs can create generative AI models at twice the speed of the previous generation with a smaller memory footprint, enabling powerful video editing, 3D rendering, and design tools.
You can render large 3D scenes in real-time and create complex animations with ray tracing using compatible GPU-accelerated applications such as Autodesk 3ds Max, Maya, Maxon Cinema 4D, and Blender. Visualize photorealistic materials as you create them and experience near lag-free interaction in addition to using tools such as AI-enhanced denoising and frame-boosting with DLSS 3.
Video Editing and Motion Graphics
GeForce RTX 50-Series GPUs deliver a generational leap in NVIDIA encoders and decoders with support for the 4:2:2 pro-grade color format, Multiview-HEVC (MV-HEVC) for 3D and virtual reality (VR) video, and the new AV1 Ultra High Quality mode. Accelerate AI effects with Tensor Cores on RTX 50-Series GPUs. Play back and edit ultra high-resolution video smoothly without pre-caching or generating proxies in Adobe Premiere Pro, Blackmagic Resolve, REDCINE-X PRO, and more. Use Auto color, Shot match, and RTX GPU-accelerated color grading to get to the ideal color in Blackmagic Resolve.
Photography and Graphic Design
Rapidly enhance and style your images with 30+ GPU-accelerated features and effects such as Select and Mask, Camera RAW, Blur Gallery, and Smart Sharpen in Adobe Photoshop. Automatically give your RAW images crisper detail, better color rendering, and fewer artifacts using the RTX-accelerated AI Enhance Details feature in Adobe Photoshop Lightroom Classic. Quickly interact and zoom in and out of complex vector graphics smoothly, thanks to GPU-acceleration in Adobe Illustrator. Instantly visualize your 2D art in photorealistic 3D with RTX GPU-accelerated rendering in Adobe Stager.
