Celebrating 30 years of ASUS graphics card innovation

In celebration of three decades of graphics card innovation, the ROG Matrix GeForce RTX 5090 builds on the technologies that made previous ASUS cards standout options for PC hardware enthusiasts. This high-performance card is powered by the NVIDIA Blackwell architecture and features revolutionary DLSS 4 technology, plus a quad-fan design boosting airflow and pressure by up to 20%. A patented vapor chamber with a milled heat spreader delivers lower GPU temperatures to enable optimum GPU performance, and liquid metal thermal compound supports more efficient GPU cooling and a higher boost clock. In addition, a 3-ounce copper layer enhances heat dissipation and creates fewer voltage drops across the PCB to boost overclocking and stability. A full copper vapor-chamber cover optimizes cooling for the GPU die and VRAM.

When using both the GC-HPWR slot of an ASUS Advanced BTF motherboard and a 12V-2x6 cable, users can unlock up to 800 watts for the ROG Matrix GeForce RTX 5090.

Other notable features include a Memory Defroster, which unlocks extreme LN2 overclocking by enhancing system recovery from memory freezes, and Aura Lighting on the circular frame to deliver customizable lighting that’s easily synchronized with other Aura Sync devices. The ROG Matrix GeForce RTX 5090 is made via the proprietary Auto-Extreme manufacturing process, ensuring precision and reliability.
