Several next-gen Asus GPUs from Nvidia and AMD have been listed by hardware data aggregator momomo_us at X. Retailers and distributors are bracing their inventory as we approach CES next month. The leak suggests that Asus may introduce a new “Astral” sub-series of GPUs under its high-end ROG brand. In addition, two retailers, Intcomex and El Changarro, accidentally put up listings for the Asus ROG Astral RTX 5080 ahead of launch.
Asus categorizes its products into three distinct lineups: Prime, TUF, and ROG, ranked from most budget-friendly to most premium. The leaker mentioned three GPUs across Asus’ three product families: the RTX 5080 from Nvidia, the RX 9070 XT, and the RX 9070 from AMD. For the uninitiated, the RX 9070 XT is renamed RX 8800 XT since AMD’s RDNA 4 family will allegedly be rebranded RX 9000.
This leak asserts that the RTX 5080 will adopt 16GB of memory, which aligns with previous rumors. Likewise, the RX 9070 XT and RX 9070 are rumored to sport 16GB of memory, though allegedly based on slower GDDR6 technology. The list suggests that Asus is developing a new Astral sub-series of GPUs, which might join Strix and Matrix under the Asus ROG umbrella. Astral is related to stars so that Asus might incorporate a white or silverish tone into these GPUs, but let’s wait for official confirmation.

From what we can see, the listed models include the RTX 5080 based on the new ROG Astral series, which is probably exclusive to Nvidia. Next, we have the RX 9070 XT and non-XT cards in Asus TUF and Asus Prime flavors with a pinch of overclocking capabilities on select models.
With 16GB of VRAM based on this leak, the RX 9070 XT and RX 9070 may feature a 256-bit interface, a sigh of relief as AMD isn’t cutting down on memory. The RX 9070 non-XT should adopt a nerfed Navi 48 die with fewer CUs (Compute Units) and a lower TGP. On the flip side, its direct competitor, the RTX 5070 Ti, sticks with 16GB, dropping to 12GB for the RTX 5070, per rumors.
According to leaks, Nvidia’s Blackwell family, which includes the RTX 5090, RTX 5080, and RTX 5070 series, is expected to launch next month. While AMD’s starting lineup is unknown, the RX 9070 XT and the RX 9070 are potential candidates to compete with Nvidia’s RTX 5070 offerings.
Exciting news for all you tech enthusiasts out there! The highly anticipated Nvidia RTX 5080 and AMD RX 9070 GPUs have been listed ahead of their official launch, and rumors suggest that Asus is gearing up to release a new “Astral” GPU lineup.
With the next generation of graphics cards on the horizon, gamers and content creators alike are eagerly anticipating the performance improvements and cutting-edge features that these new GPUs are expected to bring. The Nvidia RTX 5080 is rumored to offer even more powerful ray tracing capabilities and faster processing speeds, while the AMD RX 9070 is said to deliver exceptional performance for high-end gaming and multimedia tasks.
Asus, known for its top-notch hardware and innovative designs, is reportedly working on a new GPU lineup called “Astral” that will feature these latest Nvidia and AMD GPUs. With Asus’s reputation for high-quality products and attention to detail, we can expect nothing but the best from their upcoming releases.
Stay tuned for more updates on the Nvidia RTX 5080, AMD RX 9070, and Asus’s new “Astral” GPU lineup as we get closer to their official launch dates. It’s an exciting time to be a part of the tech community, and we can’t wait to see what these new GPUs have in store for us!
