RTX 5080 NOCTUA Edition is the 5080 most expensive commercial that Asus has done

ASUS officially announced this weekend the RTX 5080 Nocua Edition, its latest version of the 5080, which includes a cooling system created in partnership with Noctua. The companies have promoted the silent performance of the board a lot, but they did not want to reveal their price, and now we know the reason: the GPU was listed at the British store Scan by £ 1,500.

The amount is equivalent to approximately R $ 10,960 in the current price. It’s the most expensive price Asus has already charged on a RTX 5080 – not to mention Dahab, obviously. For a perspective, Nvidia’s Suggested Price (MSRP) for this video card model is £ 949 ($ 6,934), so the RTX 5080 Noctua Edition was listed for 58% more than this value.

Obviously, premium GPUS models are already expected to be more expensive than the Nvidia MSRP. But comparing Nocua Edition with other versions of similar plates in Scan herself show that she is much more expensive.

In the capture made by Videocardz also appear the variants TUF Gaming and Rog Astral of RTX 5080. It is worth remembering that these were the models chosen by ASUS and Noctual to compare with the new version of 5080. TUF Gaming costs £ 1,340 (R $ 9,791) in the British store, while Rog Astral comes out for £ 1,430 (Rog Astral).

RTX 5080 NOCTUA Edition charges for performance and name

The official announcement of ASUS RTX 5080 Noctua Edition has been accompanied by graphics that show that the board has much better cooling performance than TUF Gaming and Rog Astral. Asus says this is the quieter 5080 model of its GPUS class.

Thus, no wonder the plate has a higher value than other models. But the price difference that appears on Scan indicates that users will not be paying only for performance, but also for the Noctua quality seal.

The brand is one of the best known and most respected in the Fans segment and cooling solutions for domestic PCs, and Asus seems to count a lot to sell its new sign.
