At the ROG booth, a wide range of products was exhibited, including motherboards, graphics cards, desktop systems, monitors, and peripherals. Pushing the limits of technology and design, the booth drew particular attention with the ROG Astral GeForce RTX 5090 graphics card and the ROG Flow Z13 gaming tablet equipped with the AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395 processor.

• Humanlink displayed new accessories and user-friendly designs developed based on field research.

At the exhibition, ASUS also introduced the new BTF (Back to the Future) ecosystem, launched alongside NVIDIA’s GeForce RTX 50 Series graphics cards. The ROG Astral GeForce RTX 5090 BTF Edition and TUF Gaming GeForce RTX 5070 Ti BTF White Edition were made compatible with both BTF and standard motherboards thanks to their detachable GC-HPWR adapters.
