ASUS Philippines Launches TUF Gaming T700 Desktop Series for Filipino Gamers

The new TUF Gaming T700 and T700 Mini combine desktop gaming performance, upgraded cooling, MIL-STD-tested durability, and two form factors for different gaming setups.

ASUS Philippines is expanding its gaming desktop lineup with the arrival of the TUF Gaming T700 series, giving Filipino gamers a choice between a full-size performance-focused desktop and a smaller machine designed for more compact setups.

Announced on August 20, the lineup includes the ASUS TUF Gaming T700 (TM700TZ) and TUF Gaming T700 Mini (T700MF).

Both systems carry the familiar TUF Gaming design language, including angular styling and orange ambient lighting, while focusing on sustained gaming performance, cooling, durability, and long-term reliability.

TUF Gaming T700 Brings Ryzen and RTX Performance

At the top of the new lineup is the ASUS TUF Gaming T700, a 47-liter desktop built around an AMD Ryzen 7 8700F processor.

Depending on the configuration, buyers can choose between an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 or GeForce RTX 5060 Ti GPU.

ASUS positions the desktop for modern AAA games and high-frame-rate gaming, with its transparent side panel putting the internal components on display.

The machine also uses the orange illumination associated with the TUF Gaming aesthetic.

For cooling, ASUS equips the T700 with four 65 CFM fans and a 240mm liquid cooler, designed to help maintain performance during sustained heavy workloads.

The chassis is also MIL-STD tested, with ASUS citing testing against environmental stress, shock, and vibration.

Designed With Upgrades in Mind

The T700 is not only about the hardware installed on day one.

ASUS says the desktop has been designed with easy internal access and a modular layout to make maintenance and future component upgrades easier.

It also features toughened glass paneling and EMI shielding.

For PC gamers who prefer a pre-built system but still want the flexibility to upgrade components later, this approach could make the T700 more practical over a longer ownership period.

TUF Gaming T700 Mini Shrinks the Gaming Desktop

Gamers with smaller desks will have another option in the TUF Gaming T700 Mini.

The compact desktop is powered by an Intel Core Ultra 5 225F processor paired with NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 graphics.

Its thermal solution differs from the full-size T700. ASUS uses a custom thermal matrix with dedicated copper heat pipes and a heavy-duty 90mm cooling fan to manage heat inside the smaller chassis.

Like its larger sibling, the T700 Mini is also described by ASUS as MIL-STD tested.

The smaller footprint is intended for gamers who want desktop hardware without taking up as much room, while its reinforced outer frame is designed to make relocation easier for uses such as LAN events and tournaments.

ASUS TUF Gaming T700 Price in the Philippines

ASUS is initially offering two T700 configurations in the Philippines.

The TUF Gaming T700 TM700TZ-R8700F005WS, equipped with a Ryzen 7 8700F, 16GB DDR5 memory, RTX 5060 8GB graphics, and 512GB SSD storage, has an introductory suggested retail price of ₱139,995.

The higher configuration, the TM700TZ-R8700F010WS, pairs the Ryzen 7 8700F with an RTX 5060 Ti 8GB and carries an introductory suggested retail price of ₱149,995.

Both configurations listed in the release also include a 1000W Gold power supply, ASUS mouse and keyboard, Office Home 2024, one year of Microsoft 365 Basic, and a gaming RGB mouse and keyboard.

Warranty and After-Sales Support

The new desktops are covered by the ASUS No. 1 Quality & Service program.

According to ASUS, this includes a three-year local warranty, access to more than 100 authorized service centers nationwide, local on-site service, up to six complimentary device cleanings, and an extended 14-day replacement window.

The company is also running its ASUS No. 1 Quality, School-Ready Deals campaign until September 15, with offers covering selected ASUS and ROG devices.

Two Desktops for Two Types of Gaming Setups

The T700 series gives ASUS two distinct options within its TUF Gaming desktop range.

The full-size T700 prioritizes stronger graphics options, larger cooling hardware, and room for future upgrades. The T700 Mini takes a more compact approach for gamers who need to conserve desk space or want a machine that is easier to move.

Both, however, carry the same central TUF Gaming idea: combining gaming performance with hardware designed for sustained use and durability.

The ASUS TUF Gaming T700 will be available through official ASUS and ROG Stores and authorized retailers nationwide, while the T700 Mini is scheduled to follow in the coming months.
