If the ASCII file follows a regular grid, you can load the file into 
QGIS using XYZ format, and create a tif file with Raster -> Conversion 
-> Translate.

If the points do not form a regular grid, you have to load the data as 
delimited text, save it to Shapefile format, then run Raster -> Analysis 
-> Grid on the layer.
