Asus Rog Astral RTX 50: Video cards come with a new anti -detection function

Asus surprised users with a novelty in GPU Tweak III software for the company’s RTX 50 video signs of the company: the inclusion of Equipment Installation Checka system that detects the inclination of the Rog Astral plates, reinforcing the safety and reliability of the new GPUS.

GPU inclination detection, a hidden function

Without prior announcement, users have begun to realize that Rog Astral RTX 50 graphics plates now have a feature capable of identifying the dreaded “plate fall” (GPU SAG), a common problem in large GPUs.

The Rog Astral series already featured advanced technologies such as the Power Detector+ – which monitors the current flows from the 12V connectors – and the Thermal Mapwhich presents the temperature at strategic points of the PCB.

Now, with the inclusion of the new installation check tool, the line is further positioned its position as a reference in safety and durability.

How does the new feature work?

Technology uses internal sensors to measure possible video card inclinations, which may occur due to excessive weight – air cooling versions, such as Rog Astral RTX 5090, can weigh about 3 kg.

With the plate very long and heavy, the risk of damaging the motherboard slot bustling increases, justifying the need for precise monitoring.

According to UNIKO’s hardware analyzes, tilt detection is done through a small sensor identified as BMI323 da Bosch Sensortecan imi (Inertial Measurement Unit) who Combines gyroscope and accelerometer to record movements and angles with high precision.

The importance of the new resource

The discovery was made when investigating previous signs, such as Rog Matrix RTX 4090, in which it was evident that the BMI323 sensor was not present, which confirms that the Rog Astral line brings this important differential.

Although resources such as current and temperature monitoring also existed in the past, the ability to identify slope is unprecedented in the Asus portfolio.

It is wrong to think that the GPU SAG problem is resolved by aesthetics: over time, it can cause microfissures on the PCB, loss of contact chips and irreversible damage to the motherboard slot.

Therefore, the function Equipment Installation Check It acts precisely to alert the user before these problems occur, contributing to prolong the life of the equipment.

Nevertheless, experts warn of an important detail: supporting the excess board can also be harmful as it can cause reverse deformation of the PCB. The ideal is to maintain a balanced support, as recommended even by technical hardware maintenance channels.

Emotional and Practical Value

Although the cost of Rog Astral RTX 5090 and 5080 plates is high, the integration of discreet but significant technologies, such as this, demonstrates Asus’s zeal to meet users’ real concerns, without even exploring in marketing.

For those who invest high values ​​in premium hardware, these precautions not only protect the investment but also offer a sense of respect and attention from the manufacturer.
