ASUS has unveiled its new ProArt GeForce RTX 50 Series graphics cards, combining high-end creative performance with distinctive aesthetics. Powered by the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 GPU and the new Blackwell architecture, these cards deliver next-generation speed and visual fidelity with DLSS 4 upscaling, Multi Frame Generation, Ray Reconstruction, and NVIDIA Reflex 2 with Frame Warp.
Performance & AI Power
The ProArt RTX 5080 features 16 GB of GDDR7 memory, enabling smooth performance for high-resolution gaming and demanding creative workloads. With up to 1858 AI TOPS, the card also offers significant horsepower for AI-driven tasks, from generative design to advanced content creation.
Design with a Creative Edge
Breaking away from traditional GPU styling, ASUS has added wood-patterned laminate trims along the front edges, giving the ProArt RTX 5080 a warm, Scandinavian-inspired look. This pairs naturally with ASUS’s ProArt PA602 Wood Edition chassis, creating a cohesive aesthetic for themed builds. Subtle, indirect Aura Sync lighting ensures the card’s details stand out without overwhelming the design.
Slim Form, Serious Cooling
Built with creators in mind, the card sports a 2.5-slot profile, allowing more space for other expansion cards in compact or multi-card setups. Despite its slimness, cooling is handled by:
-
ASUS MaxContact vapor chamber for efficient heat transfer from GPU and VRAM
-
Premium phase-change thermal pad for long-term thermal stability
-
Triple Axial-tech fans for quiet yet effective airflow
Connectivity for Creators
In addition to standard DisplayPort and HDMI outputs, the card includes a USB Type-C port with DisplayPort over USB-C, making it easy to connect portable monitors or daisy-chain multiple displays without extra adapters. Unlike motherboard-based USB4 passthrough setups, this port works out of the box.
Creator-Friendly Software & AI Tools
ASUS includes GPU Tweak III for easy performance tuning, real-time monitoring, and a customizable on-screen display. The card also supports MuseTree, ASUS’s AI-powered image generation tool, allowing users to create and manage visual concepts quickly and intuitively.
This launch underscores ASUS’s commitment to blending powerful GPU performance with functional, creator-focused features and a standout design language.
