New 50 Series Graphics Cards 

Designed for gamers and creators alike, the ROG Astral series combines outstanding frame rates with an eye-catching, futuristic design. 

ASUS has unveiled its highly anticipated NVIDIA  GeForce RTX 50 Series graphics cards, introducing the ROG Astral series, which sets a new benchmark for performance and innovation. Available in both air-cooled and liquid-cooled variants, these cards are optimized to power the most demanding PC builds. Powered by NVIDIA’s Blackwell architecture, the RTX 50 Series offers an incredible leap in performance. Adding AI-driven technologies, such as NVIDIA DLSS 4, accelerates game performance and enables visually stunning graphics. For creators, the integration of NVIDIA Studio empowers creativity with faster image generation and more efficient workflows. Enthusiasts also gain access to NVIDIA NIM microservices, allowing them to build advanced AI-driven applications on NIM-ready systems.

The new ROG Astral line introduces the first four-fan ROG model, designed for exceptional cooling and performance. Both the ROG Astral and the ROG Astra LC liquid-cooled model are equipped with 80-amp MOSFETs, ensuring top-tier performance. The ASUS GeForce RTX 50 series incorporates an upgraded phase-change GPU thermal pad that improves heat dissipation, optimizing cooling and ensuring longevity even under heavy loads. These graphics cards also support the ASUS MuseTree AI image-generation app for enhanced creativity. To complement the GPUs, the ROG Thor III and ROG Strix Platinum PSUs feature the GPU-First intelligent voltage stabilizer and a GaN MOSFET, offering greater efficiency and smooth gameplay.

The key features are:

• 80-amp MOSFETs for premium power delivery
• 35% more headroom for higher overclocking potential and stability
• Advanced tuning options with GPU Tweak III
• Monitor thermal maps, power usage, and fan control

The ROG Astral series, inspired by the boundless mysteries of the cosmos, features groundbreaking innovations such as the first-ever quad-fan cooling system from ROG. The GeForce RTX 5090 and 5080 models benefit from up to 20% more airflow and pressure compared to previous designs, improving cooling efficiency and enabling higher clock speeds. This advanced cooling is paired with a patented vapor-chamber design, optimized with milled pathways for superior heat dissipation. The phase-change thermal pad further enhances heat transfer, ensuring consistent performance under heavy workloads.

For those seeking liquid cooling, the ROG Astral LC GeForce RTX 5090 offers a low-profile heatsink design and a full-coverage cold plate, coupled with a 360mm radiator that delivers up to 30% better thermal performance compared to traditional air cooling. The ASUS lineup also includes ROG Strix, TUF Gaming, and ASUS Prime series, offering a variety of configurations suited for different performance needs. Each series benefits from advanced cooling solutions, durable components, and the latest thermal technologies. With compatibility for PCIe® 5.0 and ATX 3.1 power supplies, the new GeForce RTX 50 Series is primed to deliver next-generation gaming and creative performance.
