Asus will release 24 NVIDIA GeForce RTX 50 graphics card in ROG Astral, ROG Strix, TUF Gaming and Prime series
13.01.25
Asus has introduced a new line of graphics cards based on the Nvidia Blackwell architecture – GeForce RTX 50. Among the new products stands out the ultimate ROG Astral series, which offers both air and liquid cooling for enthusiasts and gamers. Other graphics cards are divided between the ROG Strix, Asus TUF Gaming and ASUS Prime lines.
The ROG Astral series received the first-of-its-kind graphics cards with four fans, which provides 20% more airflow and pressure compared to previous three-fan models. This reduces hot spots and increases clock speeds. Additionally, an Asus evaporation chamber with improved heat pipes has been used for better heat dissipation.
To improve heat transfer between the GPU and the radiator, the ROG Astral uses a phase-change thermal pad. It liquefies when heated, filling in irregularities and providing optimal contact, which improves cooling and increases durability. For liquid cooling, the ROG Astral LC GeForce RTX 5090 is equipped with a cold plate and a 360mm radiator.
ROG Astral Series models:
- ROG Astral LC GeForce RTX 5090 / OC Edition
- ROG Astral GeForce RTX 5090 / OC Edition
