What Did Asus Have for Schools? Mobos, but Also Peripherals

Yes, the “main” topic with the most attention was motherboards (and the tech around them), but peripherals under the Asus banner also shone at the HWCooling Techtour ‘26 conference. Mice, keyboards, headphones… and there is more, which, incidentally, students also won for their activity. In this article, to give a better idea, we will map out roughly how it all looked. At the Asus booth, but also outside it.

Rewarding (Students) for Activity Was Generous

Whether in Poprad or in Martin, the Asus team had several extra prizes prepared for students. At the school near the High Tatras, these were the ROG Pelta headset, the ROG Harpe Ace Aimlab mouse, the large ROG Scabbard II XXL KJP mouse pad, and the RT-BE55 router. The latter was, incidentally, exclusively shown at the Poprad school.

From the other school where HWCooling Techtour ‘26 was held in person, a recording of the stream is available, so the prizes can easily be recalled this way. Among them were again the ROG Pelta headset and the ROG Harpe Ace Aimlab mouse, as well as the Strix Morph 96 Wireless keyboard, and…

… hen one winner received from Asus something we can probably call the grand prize. It consisted of several components, starting with the A31 case, the TUF Gaming 750W Gold power supply, the Ryujin III 240 ARGB liquid cooler, and the Strix X870E-H Gaming WiFi7 motherboard. For illustration, below is a photo with all the components.
