ASUS has announced the launch of its ProArt GeForce RTX 50 Series graphics cards, featuring a USB Type-C port with DisplayPort support and a distinctive wood-patterned laminate trim. The new series will be available in Singapore from the end of October.
Powered by NVIDIA’s latest architecture
The ProArt GeForce RTX 5080 is built on NVIDIA’s Blackwell architecture and includes DLSS 4 upscaling technology. It supports Multi Frame Generation, enhanced Ray Reconstruction, Super Resolution, and NVIDIA Reflex 2 with Frame Warp. Each card comes with 16GB of GDDR7 memory, designed to handle demanding gaming and content creation tasks at high resolutions. With the ability to deliver up to 1858 AI TOPS, the cards also offer strong performance for AI-driven workloads.
Design focused on creators
ASUS has styled the ProArt GeForce RTX 5080 with a wood-patterned laminate trim, designed to match setups that feature natural elements. The cards also include Aura Sync lighting, which can be customised through Armoury Crate software. They pair well with the ProArt PA602 Wood Edition chassis, a case that incorporates natural wood for users seeking a distinctive look.
To maximise compatibility, the cards adopt a slim 2.5-slot profile, allowing them to fit into a wider range of PC cases. This design also ensures space for additional expansion cards, often needed by content creators for specialised workflows. Despite the slim form, cooling remains a priority. The cards feature ASUS’s MaxContact design with a vapour chamber, a premium phase-change thermal pad, and three Axial-tech fans that provide efficient cooling with reduced noise.
Versatile connectivity and creator tools
In addition to standard DisplayPort and HDMI connections, the ProArt GeForce RTX 5080 includes a USB Type-C port supporting DisplayPort. This makes it easier for creators to connect portable displays or daisy-chain multiple screens. Unlike some motherboard solutions, the integrated USB-C port requires no additional wiring.
ASUS has also bundled support for GPU Tweak III, a software tool for tuning and monitoring performance. The tool allows users to overclock or switch modes with a single click, while its new OSD Wizard enables easy customisation of on-screen displays.
The series also supports MuseTree, an AI-powered image generation application that allows creators to generate and manage visual content quickly through an intuitive interface.
Availability and pricing
The ASUS ProArt GeForce RTX 5080 and ProArt GeForce RTX 5070 Ti will be available in Singapore from the end of October. The RTX 5080 will retail at S$2,399, while the RTX 5070 Ti will be priced at S$1,799.
