ASUS GeForce RTX 5080 NOCTUA OC 16GB Graphics Card

True to the legacy of the ASUS x Noctua series graphics cards, the ASUS GeForce RTX 5080 Noctua Edition leverages the power of Noctua’s latest flagship fans and a fully custom-engineered heatsink to achieve state-of-the-art quiet cooling efficiency.

The GPU utilises three NF-A12x25 G2 fans and a fully custom-developed, optimised heatsink that combines an extensive vapour chamber with seven 8mm and four 6mm heatpipes. The fans are offset in speed to avoid undesired acoustic interactions such as periodic humming or vibrations. This sophisticated cooling setup allows the GPU to run significantly quieter than ASUS’ TUF Gaming or ROG Astral models at the same temperatures.

In sum, the ASUS GeForce RTX 5080 Noctua Edition is an excellent choice for demanding gamers or content creators seeking a GPU that combines top-tier performance with superb quiet operation.

Key Features

Triple NF-A12x25 G2 Fans

Integrates three of Noctua's latest NF-A12x25 G2 fans, making it the first gaming GPU with a triple 120x25mm cooling setup. The fans’ superior performance-to-noise ratio sets a new benchmark in its class.

Speed-Offset for Optimal Acoustics

The three NF-A12x25 G2 fans are slightly offset in speed ( /-50 RPM) in a PPA/PPB/PPA pattern to avoid undesired acoustic interaction phenomena, such as periodic humming or vibrations caused by beat frequencies.

Custom-Designed Heatsink

The heatsink is custom-designed and optimised to fully utilise the pressure capacity of the NF-A12x25 G2 fans. Featuring a large vapour chamber, seven 8mm and four 6mm heatpipes, and a dense fin-stack, it provides a significant upgrade over previous Noctua Edition GPU heatsinks.

Semi-Passive Cooling

With semi-passive fan control, the fans can switch off completely when GPU temperature drops below 50°C (ASUS 0dB technology). This allows the GPU to run passively during office tasks, web browsing, or light gaming in well-ventilated cases at low to moderate ambient temperatures.
