This happens, for example, in graphics cards created with a power connector that connects directly to the card, which obviously do not use a normal cable, but as you can imagine, the motherboard must take care of this power supply, for example. actually includes the connector that the graphics card would normally have on the back.
Below we’ll walk you through how to get the perfect setup to configure your PC this way.
An ideal box for hiding cables
Starting with the chassis that our computer can have, we must look for one that offers us the possibility of incorporating a motherboard with hidden connectors, and for this there are several that we can examine, but obviously the first that we must mention is the TUF Gaming GT302
We mainly mention this first one since it is the original model created to integrate the Asus Advanced BTF motherboard (which we will talk about later), and it offers the possibility of incorporating a component of this style with hidden connectors without having a too flashy look. , it is simple, it offers excellent airflow and it is perfect for hiding all your cables.
If one wishes to opt for another brand that offers exceptional quality similar to the Asus case, then one can opt for the Airflow 6500D of Corsair, a model that has a more general use but is also created to be able to integrate ATX format motherboards and hidden connectors, facilitating assembly and offering a much more striking design without losing the quality of the airflow of the previous model.
Motherboard with hidden connectors
Obviously, what we should look at after the box is the motherboard, although many people may think that it should be the other way around, in the end if we know from the beginning what we want, the order as such does not matter since we know what we need. Generally speaking, if we want to opt for a motherboard with hidden connectors, it is quite simple, since there are currently only two brands that offer this type of motherboards.
If we want to opt for the highest possible quality and be able to choose to incorporate a graphics card that does not need a cable, then we will have to opt for the model TUF GAMING Z790-BTF WIFI Or ROG MAXIMUS Z790 HERO BTF that Asus offers, although only if we want an Intel processor, since they don’t have a version for AMD.
On the other hand, if we don’t care much about quality but we want our PC to integrate an AMD processor, we will have to opt for one of MSI’s Project Zero motherboard models, even if they have a big drawback, namely that they only hide the traditional connectors, while the graphics card must be connected via cable (therefore losing all the usefulness of a “wireless” PC).
There are also wireless graphics cards
Finally, and if our budget allows it, we have the perfect combination with the Asus Advanced BTF motherboards, and in the end it is a kind of exclusive graphics card for this component, since it is one of the few that integrates the power connector. for the GPU on said card. There is not much mystery and it depends on whether we want to spend more money and have better performance or opt for something more “normal” for a lower price, since Asus offers two graphics cards, the TUF Gaming GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER Graphics Card BTF White Edition and the ROG Strix GeForce RTX 4090 graphics card BTF OC Edition.
