Asus Prime RTX 5080 Owners: Have You Flashed the Astral BIOS?

Hi everyone,

I’m currently evaluating BIOS modding options for the Asus RTX 5080 Prime OC, and I’ve come across the following BIOS variant:

🔗TechPowerUp – Astral OC BIOS (98.03.3B.40.B7)
98.03.3B.C0.AS36 – 450w power limit
https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/274777/274777

Key Specs:

• Subsystem ID: 1043 89DE (same as Prime)
• Boost Clock: 2760 MHz
• Memory Support: GDDR7 (Hynix & Samsung)
• Thermal target: 88°C | Max: 105°C
• Power Limit: 450W

What I’m looking for: If you own an Asus Prime RTX 5080, and have flashed this exact BIOS, I’d love to know:

• Your original and flashed subsystem ID
• Detected memory vendor (Hynix or Samsung)
• Whether display output worked right after flash
• Stability results (synthetic and gaming)
• Any boost/performance gains—or regressions

I'm doing this to build a verified flashing guide for Prime users, especially those with dual BIOS setups looking for safe OC profiles without risking a black screen or hardware lockout.

Thanks!
