Power

Board power
400W13Reviewclub386.com/asus-boosts-rog-astral-geforce-rtx-5080-power-limits-to-450w-via-bios-updateRead 14 October 2026Article dated 2025-04-04: the ROG Astral arrives out of the box at 400 W. The reference RTX 5080 is 360 W. A BIOS released on 2025-03-14 raises the limit to 450 W. ASUS states no board power on its page, so this is a reviewer figure. HWCooling reads 400 W for the Performance BIOS and 360 W (adjustable to 400 W) for the Quiet BIOS.14Reviewhwcooling.net/en/asus-rog-astral-geforce-rtx-5080-oc-ed-brutalism-in-pc/1Read 14 October 2026Page 1: the Performance BIOS has a fixed power limit of 400 W. The Quiet BIOS is set to 360 W and can be raised to 400 W. The page does not say which BIOS is the factory default. Club386 says 400 W out of the box.

The spec table does not name the revision. The feature text on the ROG page writes 12VHPWR cable in the Power Detector+ paragraph, which is not a naming of the card's connector, so the unnamed pcie_16pin is stored.
