Astral For the Win
This is the most powerful GPU that I've ever owned. It's also the largest yet the quietest too. I love it. The fans never spin until the temperature hits 50°C and even then the fans are barely audible. It has a single RGB strip running along the front that's pretty customizable with the Asus software. It is expensive but I plan to keep it for years so it's worth it to me.

Exceptional Performance with the Astral
I ordered the ASUS ROG Astral NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 online from Best Buy and picked it up in-store, and I’m super happy with it! The online ordering was a snap, and when I got to the store, the pickup was fast—staff were friendly and had it ready to go in no time. This card’s performance is off the charts—I’ve been playing at 1440p with all the settings maxed, and it runs everything so smooth, even with ray tracing cranked up. Looking to buy a 4K OLED monitor now. The four-fan setup keeps it cool and quiet no matter how long I game. It’s a huge upgrade for my setup, and Best Buy made getting it a total breeze!

Fastest 5080 money can buy.
Coming from a 3080 TI, I was truly surprised at the games I got with this card. It is truly an overclocking monster. Able to get 3.3 GHz stable in game with plus 1,000 on the memory. It is enormous weighs almost as much as a newborn baby. But it has great features like the 12 pin thermal power plus protector and it also has a built-in accelerometer to tell you if it starts sagging. Great card great build and great Aesthetics. Would highly recommend but not at the current prices
