ASUS Philippines has launched the TUF Gaming T700 desktop series, bringing prebuilt gaming PCs with AMD Ryzen and Intel Core Ultra processors, NVIDIA GeForce RTX graphics, and MIL-STD-810H testing to the Philippine market.
The lineup includes the full-sized ASUS TUF Gaming T700 (TM700TZ) and the more compact TUF Gaming T700 Mini (T700MF). The T700 starts at PHP 139,995, while the Mini is scheduled to arrive in the coming months.
ASUS TUF Gaming T700 pairs Ryzen 7 with RTX 5060-series graphics
The standard T700 is built around an AMD Ryzen 7 8700F processor and comes with either an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 or RTX 5060 Ti 8GB GPU, depending on configuration. Meanwhile, the higher-end configuration includes an AMD Ryzen 7 8700F, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8GB, 16GB DDR5 memory, 512GB SSD, 1000W Gold-rated power supply, 47-liter chassis, and ASUS gaming mouse and keyboard.
ASUS is positioning the system for mainstream gaming and competitive esports, with the RTX 5060 Ti configuration providing additional graphics headroom for demanding games.
The T700 also features a transparent side panel, orange ambient lighting, and a mecha-inspired chassis that exposes the internal components.
Quad fans and liquid cooling target sustained performance
The T700 uses a more substantial cooling setup to manage heat during extended gaming sessions.
Its thermal system combines four 65 CFM fans with a 240mm liquid cooler, designed to maintain stable temperatures and sustained clock speeds under heavy workloads.
The desktop is also built around what ASUS describes as an ASUS No. 1 Motherboard, while its chassis has undergone MIL-STD testing intended to assess its resistance to environmental stress, shock, and vibration.
The internal layout is designed for easier access and maintenance, giving users room to service components and make future upgrades.
TUF Gaming T700 Mini takes a smaller approach
For gamers with limited desk space, ASUS is also preparing the TUF Gaming T700 Mini.
The compact desktop uses an Intel Core Ultra 5 225F processor and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 graphics. It is designed to provide a smaller alternative for competitive gaming and everyday desktop workloads.
Its cooling system uses a custom thermal matrix with dedicated copper heat pipes and a 90mm cooling fan to manage heat inside the smaller chassis.
Like the full-sized T700, the Mini has undergone MIL-STD testing and uses a reinforced chassis aimed at improving durability.
T700 Mini targets compact and portable gaming setups
The smaller footprint could also make the T700 Mini more practical for gamers who frequently move their systems between locations.
ASUS specifically positions the desktop for space-conscious setups and LAN events, where a smaller gaming PC can be easier to transport than a conventional full-sized tower.
However, the compact design comes with a different hardware configuration. Unlike the T700’s RTX 5060-series GPUs, the T700 Mini uses an RTX 3050, putting it in a lower performance class.
ASUS TUF Gaming T700 price and availability in the Philippines
The ASUS TUF Gaming T700 starts at ₱139,995 in the Philippines, with ASUS offering two launch configurations.
The TUF Gaming T700 TM700TZ-R8700F005WS is priced at ₱139,995 and comes with a Ryzen 7 8700F, RTX 5060 8GB, 16GB DDR5, 512GB SSD, and 1000W Gold PSU. The higher-end TUF Gaming T700 TM700TZ-R8700F010WS costs ₱149,995 and upgrades the graphics card to an RTX 5060 Ti 8GB, while retaining the same processor, memory, storage, and power supply.
Both configurations also include an ASUS mouse and keyboard, Lifetime Office Home 2024, and one year of Microsoft 365 Basic.
The TUF Gaming T700 Mini (T700MF) is expected to become available in the Philippines in the coming months, with pricing yet to be announced.
