The ASUS Legacy – PC DIY-ing Since 1989

PC DIY has been an integral part of the ASUS DNA since the launch of the very first ASUS motherboards over 30 years ago. Since 1989, ASUS has shipped over half a billion motherboards globally – placed end to end, they would form a chain long enough to circle the globe nearly four times over.

And in 2006, quick to recognize a growing, passionate community of modders and enthusiasts, ASUS launched the Republic of Gamers (ROG) brand, dedicated exclusively to developing the world’s best gaming gear. The ROG legacy began with the ROG Crosshair, the first ever motherboard made especially for overclockers and gaming enthusiasts, and continues to this day with the latest game-changing ROG components, accessories and peripherals. In 2010, ASUS also introduced the first TUF (“The Ultimate Force”) Series motherboards for even greater accessibility for experienced and aspiring PC DIYers. Now known as TUF Gaming, every TUF component delivers high performance gaming that’s built to last, thanks to stringent testing and military-grade toughness.

Nowadays, ASUS motherboards, graphics cards, monitors, CPU coolers, cases, power supplies, peripherals, and more are built to deliver high performance, dependable operation, and user-friendly experiences, all the way from the hardware itself to the software that controls it. With cutting-edge design and innovative features for your next build, ASUS has won thousands of prestigious awards in 2019 (an average of 11 every day) and continues to be an innovator in PC products since 1989.

Beyond creating top-notch PC components for gamers and creators, ASUS also continues to foster greater inclusivity among PC DIY enthusiasts and builders of all ages by introducing PC DIY and esports to educational institutions and passionate students who are interested in pursuing
