For The Ultimate Force line, the guys from Asus came up with a rather unusual positioning ― components of special reliability. In the presentations of the new cards, Asus especially boasts of an automated process technology that allows you to solder the card in one go, and the term "increased reliability" itself may include an increased number of transistors in the power subsystem, more reliable chokes, compacted textolite material, polished heat distributors, modified cooler bearings and everything like that.


Nevertheless, it is still wrong to record TUF products exclusively in the middle class, because its range includes both basic GeForce GTX 1050 Ti level cards, and GeForce RTX 3090 caliber monsters, and Radeon RX 6900 XT, which are designed for gaming in 2K and 4K resolution. Just unlike other lines like Asus KO or ROG, representatives of the TUF family are deprived of unnecessary bells and whistles and complex address illumination, they have lower overclocking capabilities, and price tags are significantly cheaper.

The most popular models in the TUF ranks are the "folk" variants of the GTX 1650/1660 level, which, by the standards of 2021, although they lack stars from the sky, still provide a decent framerate in popular game titles at medium-high graphics settings and Full HD resolution. Usually, gamers do not like to spend hard-earned money on unnecessary accessories and appreciate such an ability to focus on the most important. That is why the brand's top sales most often feature not tuned ROG Strix models, but relatively simple TUF and Dual video accelerators.
