Announcing the ASUS S5 Series

TAIPEI, Taiwan, February 25, 2022 — ASUS today announced S500SD, S500MD and S500TD, an all-new series of desktop PCs primed for any task and available in an array of versatile form factors ― from a space-saving 9-liter case to an expansive 27-liter tower.

With the latest-generation up to 12th Gen Intel® Core™ i7 processors, discrete graphics card up to NVIDIA GeForce RTX™ 3060 graphics and high-speed DDR4 memory, the S5-series PCs have the performance needed to make short work of everyday tasks, enabling users to power through work, maximize learning or enjoy enhanced entertainment.

A dual-storage design ensures both fast file access and large capacity, while the advanced thermal layout and models with tool-free access are born to drive up productivity. The latest S5 desktops also boast outstanding build quality inside and out, including an all-solid capacitor design to ensure years of durable and reliable computing.

Primed for any task: Intel Core i7 CPU, 64 GB 3200 MHz DDR4 memory and dual-storage design

All ASUS S5-series desktop PCs are powered by an up to Intel Core i7-12700 processor, supported by the Intel B660 chipset and up to 64 GB of 3200 MHz DDR4 memory. This enables S5 PCs to take all computing tasks in stride, from daily activities like writing reports or surfing the net, to watching videos or playing games with the kids ― all with performance that is fast, responsive and smooth.

The new desktops also benefit from a dual-storage design that delivers the best of both worlds: the superfast data-access speeds of an up to 2 TB SSD combined with the massive capacity of an up to 4 TB HDD. The SSD speeds up the operating system and apps, enabling S5 series PCs to boot in seconds, and to access files in the blink of an eye. And with the high-capacity hard drive, there’s more than enough space for a whole family’s worth of photo albums, music and movie libraries.

Fit for entertainment and creation: Up to NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 GPU and 4K UHD support

ASUS S5-series PCs are also well-equipped in the graphics department, with both S500MD and S500TD offering up to NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 professional-grade graphics.

When it’s time to relax by watching supersmooth 4K UHD movies or firing up the latest games for immersive, lag-free gaming, these models deliver high-quality entertainment experiences. They also empower users to seamlessly and effortlessly edit creations and multilayered files, whether creating short online videos, full-length features, 3D modeling or exploring graphic design. Through NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 professional-grade graphics, S500MD and S500TD offer users the assurance that they render quicker, broadcast clearer and edit videos better.

S500SD is fitted with discrete NVIDIA GeForce RTX graphics, so it too is capable of taking the visuals up to 4K UHD displays.

Hassle-free maintenance and upgrades: Tool-free chassis and quick-release components

ASUS S500SD and S500MD both benefit from a tool-free chassis design that enables hassle-free maintenance and upgrades. Chassis can be opened up without a screwdriver, so access is both straightforward and quick. Then, once inside, both the HDD and optical drive can be easily pulled out using just fingers ― minimizing the time and effort typically involved in performing component upgrades and routine servicing.

World-class foundation and components: ASUS motherboards and rigorous testing

ASUS S5-series desktops are subjected to and must pass a series of demanding quality-assurance procedures. These includes vibration, drop, high/low temperature storage and operational tests to ensure they meet ASUS standards, and exceed those set by other manufacturers. These procedures provide consumers with the assurance that S5-series PCs are engineered to cope with temperature extremes, the bumps and knocks of shipping and the pressures of everyday use.

Each model features a motherboard built by ASUS ― the world’s No. 1 motherboard brand. These powerful foundation components are renowned for offering comprehensive system protection to safeguard hardware, 24/7 stability through extensive testing, and consistent performance. Trusted ASUS motherboards also boast 100% enterprise-grade solid capacitors, able to withstand extreme temperatures, ensuring smooth and stable performance, even after long hours of continuous use.
