ASUS has unveiled the TUF Z97 Series motherboards, which are built around the latest Intel Z97 Express chipset. The new TUF Sabertooth Z97 Mark 1 and Sabertooth Z97 Mark 2, Gryphon Z97 and Gryphon Z97 Armor Edition motherboards support up to the latest 5th-generation Intel Core processors and - exclusively on the Sabertooth Z97 Mark 1 - the new 10 Gbit/s SATA Express interface for high-speed external storage. Available in both ATX and mATX form factors, there's a TUF Z97 motherboard suitable for any build.

Looks TUF, performs tougher
TUF motherboards are world-renowned for their toughness, long-term stability, durability and bold styling, and the new models continue this proud tradition with a powerful new military-inspired design and the use of premium components throughout. The robust TUF motherboards have upgraded thermal management with the brand new TUF ICe cooling for precise fan control and thermal monitoring. Other features include the comprehensive Thermal Radar 2 cooling control, including the innovative Dust Diverter reversible fan technology and VGA Fan Control, making TUF motherboards cooler, more stable and even more reliable.
