Computer Cooling Asus series TUF (The Ultimate Force)
prices on 8 modelsAsus TUF
A range of mid-level all-in-one liquid cooling systems. Like many modern analogues, these "dropsy" are made according to the reference design of the Danish craftsmen from Asetek, when the system consists of a massive radiator and a liquid block with a pump for distilling liquid. To cool the radiator, one, two or three fans with a diameter of 120 mm with PWM speed control and a maximum acceleration of up to 2000 rpm are fixed above it.
Upon close acquaintance, it turns out that the “dropsy” TUF is subtly similar to other LSS brand ROG Strix LC. But if we take a closer look, we will see that the TUF version has a number of simplifications in terms of address lighting and the range of supported connectors, which is why it costs less. At the same time, both LSSs are equipped with an extended five-year warranty, which makes them a very interesting option for cooling in the future. Most analogues on the market have a 2 or 3 year warranty. Among other features of the series, it is worth noting a simplified mounting system that any beginner can handle. Especially in the case of mounting on sockets from AMD.
LSS Asus TUF appeared on the market only at the end of 2021, so the assortment of the line can hardly be called rich. In 2022, only 2 kits can be found on sale, which differ in the type of backlight - one uses classic RGB, the other has more complex addressable backlighting. Both come in 120 and 240 mm form factors: in the first case, the system is equipped with one 120 mm fan and is perfect for compact cases, in the second case, the radiator is blown by two turntables, the performance of which is designed more for classic gaming and working assemblies at an above-average level.
