ASUS ROG ASTRAL RTX 5080 16GB + ROG STRIX 1200W Platinum Bundle / ASUS ROG ASTRAL RTX 5080 16GB GDDR7 OC Edition Graphics Card - PCIe 5.0, DLSS 4, Axial-tech Fan, Patented Vapor Chamber, Dual BIOS, 3.8-Slot / ASUS ROG STRIX 1200W Platinum Power Supply - 80 PLUS Platinum, ATX 3.1 compatible, Dual ball fan bearings / ROG-ASTRAL-RTX5080-O16G-1200W-Platinum

Inspired by the cosmos, the ROG Astral GeForce RTX 5080 marks ROG’s first quad-fan graphics card and combines a patented vapor chamber, increased heatsink fin density, a phase-change GPU thermal pad, elevated factory clock speeds, and strengthened power delivery. These premium technologies—housed in a die-cast frame with a metal GPU bracket—are designed to deliver the performance needed for the most demanding gaming scenarios.

A revolutionary four-fan arrangement generates a vertical airflow channel that increases air pressure by up to 20%, significantly lowering GPU temperatures and reducing hotspots to enable higher sustained clock speeds.

The patented vapor chamber uses milled pathways so heatpipes can seat without flattening, maximizing contact surface and improving thermal performance by over 10%. This design boosts heat dissipation efficiency for better cooling results.

ASUS’s MaxContact manufacturing process increases the GPU heat spreader’s contact surface area by 5%, improving thermal transfer between the GPU and cooler to enhance overall cooling efficiency.

A premium phase-change GPU thermal pad melts to fill microscopic gaps between the GPU and the thermal module, providing superior thermal conductivity and enhanced heat dissipation for reliable performance under heavy loads.

The design uses powerful 50-amp MOSFETs plus additional power phases to provide over 25% more headroom compared to the reference design, improving performance stability and overclocking potential.

GPU Tweak III provides easy overclocking and tuning with OC and Silent mode toggles, an OC scanner, and a Voltage-Frequency Tuner for precise adjustments to squeeze out peak performance.

Pair the card with ROG Thor III or ROG Strix Platinum Series PSUs to benefit from the patented “GPU-First” Intelligent Voltage Stabilizer, which enhances voltage stability by up to 45% during demanding sessions. The integration of a GaN MOSFET also boosts power efficiency by up to 30%.

The ROG Strix 1200W Platinum provides top-tier performance and dependable stability for gaming systems. It incorporates next-gen GaN MOSFET for improved power efficiency, a “GPU-FIRST” option with a patented-intelligent voltage stabilizer for steadier graphics-card power, ATX 3.1 compliance, and a native 12V-2x6 connector to support the latest hardware.

The ROG Strix Platinum PSU uses GaN MOSFET technology to boost power efficiency by up to 30%, reducing wasted energy. The smaller GaN components also free up internal space, allowing for larger heatsinks and better airflow to improve heat dissipation inside the PSU.

When you connect the IVS cable, the "GPU-FIRST" voltage sensing mode increases voltage stability by up to 45%, which helps maintain consistent power during intense gaming and overclocking. If you prefer traditional CPU-focused sensing, simply disconnect the IVS cable. Note: the “GPU-First” patented-intelligent voltage stabilizer is designed exclusively for 16-pin PCIe power cables and is not available for 8-pin PCIe power cables.

Upgraded PCIe® connectors use copper pins with better thermal conductivity to run cooler and deliver power more efficiently. This improvement results in a 29% reduction in connector temperatures (up to 12.28°C), supporting stable operation for demanding graphics cards.

ROG Strix Platinum is fully ATX 3.1 compatible, meeting tighter voltage and current regulation for next-generation hardware. It ships with a 16-pin PCIe cable capable of delivering up to 600W to PCIe Gen 5.1 graphics cards, preparing your build for next-gen GPUs.

The ROG Strix 1200W Platinum attains 80 PLUS Platinum and Cybenetics Platinum certifications by using low-ESR Japanese capacitors that enhance stability and efficiency. These components contribute to better power consumption, reduced heat, improved acoustics, and overall reliability.

Dual ball fan bearings provide a lifespan of 80,000 hours, lasting twice as long as sleeve bearings and outperforming fluid dynamic bearings. This design ensures durable, quiet cooling for the ROG Strix Platinum series.

These etched cables use a flexible premium material to simplify installation and run at temperatures 50°C lower than the safety limit when routed for cable management. They meet UL1581 flame-test requirements and UL758 certification to help ensure safety during DIY builds.
