For this test, ASUS sent us a Z790 refresh motherboard to accommodate our 14th generation CPUs. [...] ASUS, well aware of the nature of the processors to be tested, also gave us the opportunity to test their AIO TUF Gaming LC II 360 ARGB kit.

In terms of the test platform, we're using an ASUS TUF Gaming LC II 360 ARGB cooling solution [...] The motherboard used for the LGA1700 processors is an ASUS TUF Gaming Z790-Pro Wifi, [...]. Finally, an ASUS TUF 1000 watt power supply provides the energy needed to power everything.

Don't expect any huge changes from the usual assembly customs: the change is there but you can't see it, and that's the point. The design we have built with the BTF series components is a PC without cables, with an aesthetic never seen before.

If I were building a design machine and didn't care about money, I would easily go for the ASUS ROG RYUJIN III ARGB, which not only cools well, but is equipped with a beautiful 3.5" LCD display and magnetic daisy-chain fans.
