RTX 4070 graphics cards without cables arrive, ASUS will start mass production!

The graphics card without cables, an unattainable dream? Not for ASUS, which presented at Computex 2023 in May a RTX 4070 without power wires, often the object of much trouble for PC players. Now the manufacturer will start mass production!

It was only a prototype presented to the Computex 2023 on a GeForce RTX 4070 graphics card from Nvidia: a GPU without power cables. This innovation has generated such enthusiasm that Asus will launch mass production of this high-end model in autumn 2023.

Cable storage maniacs will be in heaven with this innovation for gamer PCs. For those whose computer sits on the desk with transparent glass, this is very good news aesthetically speaking. No more unsightly cables hanging on the side of the card, no more storage modules. Your build will be impeccable.

ASUS motherboard to connect graphics card without cables

Of course, this particular model of GPU will require an accurate motherboard to operate, of which ASUS will be the only manufacturer. It uses a special slot on the motherboard to access the power supply. These are two models that will be available to be the companions of this very special RTX 4070, which will undoubtedly join our guide of the best graphics card models to choose in 2023:

• The Z790 TUF Gaming, with a particularly minimalist look.
• The TX Gaming B760-BTF WIFI.

Both will be available in black or white, with their power connectors on the back of the motherboard. Thus, there are actually still cables, but they will not be visible and will allow better storage.

The graphics card itself will be in the form of a triple fan card. A smaller, smaller ASUS proprietary interface is identical to the design's conventional PCIe Gen 4.0 x16 interface.The latter is powered by a 16-pin connector, which runs through the back of the motherboard for a more streamlined look.

Getting rid of the clutter of cables could be a sufficient advantage for some PC manufacturers to benefit from it, especially those looking for perfection in minimalism. In addition, a power supply solution with a dedicated slot is probably more reliable than bulky cables, which are unfortunately a weak point leading to hardware failures, especially with the melting of the power connectors.
