Fremont, CA (March 21, 2023) — ASUS today announces the availability of the  GeForce RTX™ 4080 Noctua Edition in North America. The ASUS GeForce RTX 4080 Noctua Edition is a continuation of the ASUS collaboration with Noctua, building on the previous GeForce RTX 3070 and RTX 3080 Noctua variants. Combining Noctua fan design prowess and an ASUS custom-built vapor chamber, the ASUS GeForce RTX 4080 Noctua Edition is provides quiet, optimized air-cooling properties to the RTX 4080 series.

Optimized Silence & Vapor Chamber Innovation
The ASUS GeForce RTX 4080 Noctua Edition was developed in partnership between the ASUS thermal R&D team and Noctua engineers. To prioritize low noise levels, smooth acoustic signature, and high cooling performance, the Noctua Edition incorporates a pair of state-of-the-art Noctua NF-A12x25 120mm fans for optimal airflow.  A Dual BIOS switch is nestled at the edge of the backplate, with Quiet Mode enabled by default to minimize noise out-of-the-box.

The ASUS GeForce RTX 4080 Noctua Edition includes an impeller created from Noctua’s proprietary Sterrox^® liquid-crystal polymer, which has an exceptionally low thermal expansion coefficient and allows the fan blades to sit 0.5 mm away from the outer frame. The tight tolerance allows the NF-A12x25 fans to work more efficiently against back pressure by reducing airflow leakage ― perfect for a densely-packed GPU fin stack. A metal-reinforced motor hub and axis further support the precise gap between impeller and frame.

Building upon the concept of minimizing acoustics for maximum GPU performance from the 30 series generation, an expansive vapor chamber with a network of eight heatpipes was incorporated into the 40 series design. 

Classic Noctua Aesthetic
The ASUS GeForce RTX 4080 Noctua Edition includes a custom brown shroud that complements Noctua's distinctive color scheme and provides a secure mounting system — no zip ties needed. The card also includes ASUS and Noctua logos on the front and sides of the shroud, along with subtle graphics on the full-length alloy backplate.


AVAILABILITY & PRICING
The ASUS GeForce RTX 4080 Noctua Edition will be available for $1649.99 in North America at select retailers including Newegg, Amazon, Memory Express, Canada Computers, and the ASUS eshop.
