ASUS and Noctua have teamed up to create the ASUS GeForce RTX 5080 Noctua Edition, the quietest ASUS graphics card in its class. Not only is this card a powerhouse unit designed to handle all your most graphically intensive tasks, but it’s an absolute visual stunner that’ll elevate your rig’s aesthetic luster all by itself. With Noctua’s incredible fan designs and the unrivaled capabilities of ASUS cooling technology, this card will keep temps down while giving you the graphics power you need and the quiet performance you desire.
A silent champion
To be the quietest graphics card in its class, the ASUS GeForce RTX 5080 Noctua Edition uses three Noctua NF-A12x25 G2 120mm fans. Previous ASUS-Noctua graphics card collaborations featured two Noctua fans, but we leveled up this go-around to handle the cooling needs of the powerful GeForce RTX 5080 GPU.
Noctua’s ultra-quiet second-gen fans spearhead the card’s cooling efforts and are reinforced by a bevy of ASUS solutions. Our optimized vapor chamber efficiently transfers heat from the GPU and VRAM chips to a hefty heatsink loaded with heat-dissipating fins. The card’s phase-change thermal pad also helps optimize heat transfer, ensuring long-term performance no matter how hard you push your hardware.
When temperatures are low enough, 0dB technology kicks in, shutting off the card’s fans entirely so you get the absolute quietest computing experience possible. A physical Dual BIOS switch lets you switch between Quiet and Performance modes with a quick restart of your machine, so when you want peak power or maximum serenity, you have your pick.
The performance and power you need
The ASUS GeForce RTX 5080 Noctua Edition’s ultra-low noise output makes its incredible performance that much more notable. Its 2700MHz default clock speed will crush any game or creative program you throw at the card. And as a GeForce RTX 5080 card, not only is it near the top of the RTX 50 Series’ power stack, but it’s loaded with the series-wide performance perks NVIDIA’s infused into its latest GPUs. Among other tech, look forward to DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation and Ray Reconstruction, giving you incredible ray-tracing performance and unbelievable framerates in demanding contemporary AAA games.
The card also packs a hefty 16GB of GDDR7 VRAM. That much memory gives you what you need to play any game on the market at high resolutions with souped-up graphics settings. If you use your PC for AI and content creation workloads, you’re all set there, too. The card’s hefty 1858 AI TOPS count means it can handle whatever artificial intelligence tasks you have lined up.
Look as good as you play
Fans eager to see the famed Noctua aesthetic on a cutting-edge graphics card can rest easy — just like with our earlier collabs, we’re bringing the brand’s iconic look to the ASUS GeForce RTX 5080 Noctua Edition. With a distinct shroud featuring complementary brown and beige hues, this earthen, attractive card is a perfect fit for rustic rigs. But its bold style and incredibly quiet powerhouse performance make it a stellar fit inside any good-looking desktop PC that needs low-noise muscle.
Make sure you have a PSU capable of handling this card. We recommend at least an 850W power supply unit for this particular model, but use our power supply calculator to figure out what PSU you need to handle your rig’s specific CPU/GPU combination.
