The TUF Gaming Geforce RTX 4070 TI Super BTF White OC, which the manufacturer has already shown off at Computex 2023 and Bilibili World 2023, follows the concept of BTF (“Back to (the) Future”) and, according to Asus, with its hidden connectivity is nothing less than an entry into “A whole new era for all PC gamers.” The so-called “hidden connector”, which acts as a convenient counterpart on the BTF mainboard that was also designed specifically for this purpose, supplies the “generally modified graphics card” with the appropriate power.
