ASUS Philippines has introduced the TUF Gaming T700 desktop series, expanding its gaming lineup with two factory-built systems designed around performance, durability, and long-term reliability.
The lineup consists of the full-sized TUF Gaming T700 (TM700TZ) and the more compact TUF Gaming T700 Mini (T700MF). Both feature the aggressive, mecha-inspired styling associated with the TUF Gaming family, along with dedicated thermal solutions and chassis designs that have undergone MIL-STD testing.
While they share the same TUF Gaming design philosophy, the two desktops are built around distinctly different hardware configurations and form factors.
TUF Gaming T700: full-sized performance
The ASUS TUF Gaming T700 (TM700TZ) is designed for modern AAA gaming, combining an AMD Ryzen 7 8700F desktop processor with NVIDIA GeForce RTX graphics.
Two configurations are listed for the Philippine market. The higher-spec model comes with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8GB GPU, while the other uses an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 8GB. Both configurations include 16GB of DDR5 memory, a 512GB SSD, and a 1000W Gold-rated power supply.
The T700 uses a 47-liter chassis with a transparent side panel that puts its internal components on display. Signature TUF orange ambient lighting complements the system’s mecha-inspired exterior.
Cooling is handled by four 65 CFM fans paired with a 240mm liquid cooler, a setup designed to help the system sustain clock speeds under heavy workloads and extended gaming sessions.
ASUS also highlights the T700’s durability. The desktop is built around an ASUS motherboard, while its chassis undergoes MIL-STD testing for environmental stress, shock, and vibration.
Toughened glass paneling and EMI shielding protect internal signals while maintaining a clear view of the system’s components. ASUS has also designed the interior around easy access and a modular layout to simplify maintenance and future component upgrades.
TUF Gaming T700 Mini: compact gaming setup
For gamers working with less desk or room space, the TUF Gaming T700 Mini (T700MF) brings the series into a smaller chassis.
The T700 Mini is powered by an Intel Core Ultra 5 225F desktop processor paired with NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 graphics. ASUS positions the combination for gaming, multitasking, and everyday desktop workloads while retaining the TUF Gaming family’s rugged design language.
Its cooling system differs from that of the larger T700. Instead of liquid cooling, the T700 Mini uses a custom thermal matrix with dedicated copper heat pipes and a 90mm cooling fan to manage temperatures under sustained loads.
Like its larger sibling, the T700 Mini features a MIL-STD-tested chassis designed to withstand demanding operating conditions. The exterior combines futuristic styling with signature TUF orange ambient lighting.
Its reduced overall volume is intended for more space-conscious gaming setups while also making the desktop easier to relocate for LAN events or tournament use. A reinforced outer frame adds structural protection during transport.
Pricing and availability in the Philippines
The ASUS TUF Gaming T700 (TM700TZ) is available in two configurations.
The TM700TZ-R8700F005WS, equipped with an AMD Ryzen 7 8700F processor, 16GB DDR5 memory, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 8GB graphics, and a 512GB SSD, is priced at PHP139,995.
The higher-spec TM700TZ-R8700F010WS retains the Ryzen 7 8700F processor, 16GB DDR5 memory, and 512GB SSD but upgrades the graphics to an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8GB. It is priced at PHP149,995.
Both configurations use a 47-liter chassis and 1000W Gold-rated power supply, and include an ASUS gaming RGB mouse and keyboard, a lifetime license for Microsoft Office Home 2024, and one year of Microsoft 365 Basic.
The ASUS TUF Gaming T700 Mini (T700MF) is expected to become available in the Philippines in the coming months. ASUS has not yet announced its local price.
The new desktops will be sold through official ASUS and ROG Stores and authorized retailers nationwide.
ASUS warranty and service support
The TUF Gaming T700 and T700 Mini 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 a 14-day replacement window.
The two systems join ASUS Philippines’ expanding desktop portfolio, giving gamers a choice between a larger gaming rig with more powerful graphics options and a smaller system designed for space-conscious setups.
In Summary
The ASUS TUF Gaming T700 series brings two new factory-built gaming desktops to the Philippine market. The full-sized T700 uses an AMD Ryzen 7 8700F processor with either NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 or RTX 5060 Ti graphics, while the smaller T700 Mini combines an Intel Core Ultra 5 225F processor with NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 graphics. Both feature dedicated thermal solutions and MIL-STD-tested chassis designs, with the T700 priced from PHP139,995 and the T700 Mini scheduled for local availability in the coming months.
