- The ASUS ROG Astral RTX 5090 OC edition has made a big leap on the NVIDIA foundation model, via overclocking
- He broke four world overclocking records, reaching a 3.45 GHz boost clock
- Unfortunately, the actions remain low on each online retailer
The launch of the GPU of the NVIDIA RTX 5000 series was strewn with problems, ranging from limited availability (among the Founders Edition and third parties) to missing ROPs – but now, Asus is responsible for some good news concerning the RTX 5090.
Breaking four overclocking world records, the Asus RTX 5090 ROG Astral GeForce 5090 has reached a boost clock greater than 3.4 GHz with 35 GBPS GDDR7 VRAM, as reported by Tom equipment. Although the ROG Astral already has a 2.58 GHz boost clock out of the box, the landmarks (with high-end processors) on Safedisk led by the well-known overclocking Tony Yu have seen the GPU push beyond its OC limit-via air cooling, it has maintained an incredible 3 GHz clock speed, while a liquid cooling method From 3.45 GHz, an incredibly impressive speed.
The RTX 5090 is already a powerful GPU – “Overkill” is a better description, honestly – because its 32 GB’s VRAM at around 28 GBPS is more than enough to manage AAA games. With a thrust up to 35 Gbps (during the result of 3.45 GHz), the game would be a cake for the Blackwell GPU – although it is sure to say that this overclocking method is only for those who are absolutely dead to get the most powerful GPU.
Thanks to the Quad -Fan design of Asus with allegations of up to 20% of better air flow, an incredibly high overclocking level is possible even without the advanced liquid cooling implemented by Yu – but this certainly does not cost an affordable cost either. Given the limited availability of the RTX 5090, its ridiculous $ 3,079.99 / £ 2,889.99 £ 6,499.00 to the will probably be inflated when it becomes available.
Good luck to get all RTX 5090 GPUs to start
Again, it is practically impossible to acquire a RTX 5090 at retail price, or even find an available for purchase – so while the ROG Astral RTX 5090 is probably the best model (to date) to be achieved because of its overclocking capacities, but good luck by finding one.
We know that Nvidia will replenish her Founders Edition cards finally, will come back once again to her checked priority access scheme, which can help some in the United States get their hands on the GPU. Regarding third -party cards (like the Astral Rog), you will probably be forced to spend too much if you are absent for a – not only do we deal with a strong demand, but also scalpers, so it’s not an easy task.
In addition, there are still reasons why I would recommend staying away from Blackwell GPUs for the moment – there could still be problems to discover, with an excellent example being missing ROPs and GPU electric adapters of certain users overheating.
However, I must admit that how far the RTX 5090 can be pushed in terms of performance capacities is fascinating, and I can’t wait to see how it manages the next AAA titles.
