Fifth-generation Tensor Cores for sophisticated framerate-boosting DLSS 4 features and fourth-generation Ray Tracing Cores for next-level RT performance are features of powerful NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 GPUs. Additionally, it features neural processors that use less memory to create high-fidelity images. Users can anticipate unmatched graphics and performance in their favorite games when they have a GeForce RTX 5090.
Users can utilize the ASUS GPU Tweak III desktop application to modify specific GPU parameters or to view the card’s record-setting output in real time. Additionally, ROG Astral graphics cards enable Power Detector+, a unique function in GPU Tweak III. Any one of the twelve power pins on the 12VHPWR or 12V-2×6 cable that is attached to the card can be used to identify abnormalities. The user is alerted right away if a problem is found and the power cable needs to be reseated.
The RTX 5090 OC Edition of the ROG Astral GeForce is beginning to appear on store shelves. Depending on the CPU, overclocking strategy, and connected peripherals, ASUS suggests the ROG Thor 1200W Platinum III or ROG Thor 1600W Titanium III. Users should ensure they have a power supply capable of keeping up with this powerful graphics card.

Engineered for Excellence
ASUS created the ROG Astral with a passion for innovation and the desire for accuracy. It combines art and technology to achieve stellar cooling and unmated performance, drawing inspiration from the grandeur of the cosmos.
Cooling Expertise
Quad-Fan Force
Air pressure can be increased by up to 20% with a potent vertical airflow channel created by a ground-breaking four-fan design. This leads to superior thermal performance, which significantly reduces GPU temperatures and hotspots, allowing for previously unheard-of clock speeds.
Optimized Fin Spacing
A fourth fan increases cooling potential by enabling more closely spaced heatsink fins.
Patented Vapor Chamber
Heat pipes can sink in without flattening with a unique vapour chamber with machined channels, increasing the effectiveness of heat dissipation. This creative combination increases thermal performance by more than 10% while optimizing contact surface.
MaxContact Design
MaxContact, a manufacturing process unique to ASUS, efficiently boosts the GPU heat spreader’s surface area by 5% for increased thermal efficiency.
Phase-Change GPU Thermal Pad
A high-quality phase-change GPU thermal pad ensures excellent performance and endurance for graphics cards under intense loads by melting to efficiently fill the gaps between the GPU and the thermal module. This offers greater thermal conductivity and enhanced heat dissipation.
Game Friendly
GPU Tweak III: Effortless GPU Monitoring and Tuning
Power Detector+
You can easily adjust overclocking parameters with GPU Tweak III to get optimal performance. Toggles for OC and silent modes, an OC scanner, and a voltage-frequency tuner for accurate adjustments are all included.
Mileage
You can see the temperatures in each place in real time and simply modify system settings for optimal performance with embedded sensors throughout the VRMs, chokes, and VRAM that gather data for the Thermal Map.
Effortless Overclocking
Any abnormality across any of the six power pins on the 12VHPWR cable can be detected by Power Detector+. You are informed right away that the power cord has to be reseated if a problem is found.
Thermal Map
You can monitor the type of load you have used during several gaming sessions with the Mileage feature, which tracks consumption at various power levels.
FanConnect II
Two PWM FanConnect headers give you more DIY options. For intense 3D workloads, chassis fans can be directly synchronized with the card and adjusted using a curve based on CPU and GPU temperatures, providing additional intake or exhaust.
Dual BIOS
Which is more important to you: low core temperatures or low noise levels? Quiet mode offers a less aggressive fan curve for quieter operation at medium temperatures while maintaining the same power target and top-end settings. Performance mode allows the fans to spin up to keep the card running cool all the time.
Perfect PSU for the GeForce RTX 50 Series
Patented “GPU-First” Intelligent Voltage Stabilizer
Enjoy dependable power for your graphics card when you pair it with the ROG Thor III and ROG Strix Platinum Series PSU. GPU-First helps to guarantee top performance for a more reliable gaming experience by improving voltage stability by up to 45%, even during taxing gaming sessions and overclocking situations. Furthermore, a GaN MOSFET can increase power efficiency by as much as 30%.
