ASUS has announced its flagship ROG Matrix GeForce RTX 5090 30th Anniversary Edition graphics card will be available in Malaysia, although as we’ve mentioned before, this is a limited-edition special with only 1,000 models to be allocated throughout the world, so don’t expect many of them to be sold here.
ROG Matrix GeForce RTX 5090
The headlining feature of this red-and-black-colored, quad-slot ROG Matrix GeForce RTX 5090 card is the highest-ever TDP on a consumer GPU today – all 800 watts of it. For almost 40% more power headroom than the 575W stock RTX 5090, you’re expected to gain another 10% more performance over the stock variants from its +353MHz factory overclock (at 2760MHz boost).
To supply all that power, it needs both the 12V-2×6 connector and ASUS’s own GC-HPWR (HPCE) connector found on ‘Advanced BTF’ series motherboards that can supply extra power through the HPCE slot. Perhaps convenient for ASUS, the power will be primarily delivered via the GC-HPWR connector with the rather infamous power connector acting as supplementary.
On the cooling side, ASUS mostly carries over the ROG Astral’s quad-fan cooling system along with copper vapor chamber, heat pipes, copper heatsink fins and liquid metal thermal interface to maximize heat transfer. Regarding overclocking, this card employs a three-ounce copper PCB layer that reduces voltage drops and improves voltage-regulator cooling; for LN2 overclocking, the Memory Defroster feature activates automatically near 0°C to help recover from VRAM freeze conditions and help keep the system stable under extreme low-temperature conditions.
The ROG Matrix RTX 5090 also come with some unique features accessible via ASUS GPU Tweak III software, including extensive telemetry monitoring, hardware-level sag detection and Power Detector+, which alerts users to potential power delivery issues (i.e. improper 12V-2×6 load balancing or overcurrent) and helps ensure the card is properly seated.
ASUS Malaysia says the ROG Matrix GeForce RTX 5090 30th Anniversary Edition will be available in Malaysia beginning this December, with pre-order information to be announced through ROG Malaysia’s social channels. While we didn’t get local MSRP just yet, the US MSRP is listed at US$3,999, which converts to about RM16,592 today. Consider this figure the minimum that you’ll have to pay to get your hands on one of these special GPUs.
Pokdepinion: I expect overclockers will want to get their hands on one of these.
