Asus' clever new anti-sag graphics card tech could save your gaming GPU
By Edward Chester
Added Apr 30, 2025
Asus has come up with an ingenious way of potentially saving the life of your graphics card and even your whole PC. Thanks to an accelerometer built into its ROG Astral graphics card, it can tell you if your GPU is sagging and potentially set to come crashing down on the rest of your PC, or at the very least damage its own PCIe connector.
The new Asus addition is built into its flagship ROG Astral version of the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090. While our RTX 5090 review showed the Founders Edition of the card to be surprisingly compact, many of the best graphics cards, including the ROG Astral, are far larger and heavier, and this has the potential to wreak havoc inside your PC.
