What do you gain in practice?

• Compact build without unnecessary bulk: the mATX format helps with more compact boxes, without sacrificing the basics that a modern system needs.
• Wi-Fi ready out of the box: convenient when there is no easy access to Ethernet or when you want a cleaner installation.
• TUF stability: orientation to durability and reliability for everyday use.

Selection & Compatibility Guide (no surprises)

Socket/CPU: The parent is for AM4. If you are upgrading, check with ASUS if a BIOS update is required for your specific processor model.

Box: Make sure your box supports micro-ATX and that it fits the graphics card/cpu you have in mind (especially in compact cases).

Wi-Fi in practice: Screw the antennas correctly and place them in a position with as little obstruction as possible to the router. If you're after the lowest possible latency, Ethernet remains the most stable solution.
