A look at one of the clean builds that BTF enables:
ASUS on some of the benefits behind BTS:
With the combination of a BTF chassis and a BTF motherboard, users can tuck away nearly all the cables that connect directly to the motherboard, including the cables that supply power to the motherboard, connect 2.5-inch SATA drives, hook up case fans, and connect front-panel buttons and I/O.
GPUs often require more power than the PCIe x16 slot can supply, so they require users to connect a PCIe power cable. For users that would prefer to hide that wire as well, ASUS offers the Advanced BTF approach. Advanced BTF motherboards include a graphics card high-power slot ready to supply all the power that a BTF graphics card needs. Users will need a card with a graphics card high-power (GC-HPWR) gold finger in order to build an Advanced BTF PC.
