Recently, I came across ASUS’s TX Gaming lineup—a special collaboration with Hatsune Miku—and it instantly caught my attention. Intrigued by the design and the exclusivity, I decided to collect all the components and build a system around them.
The TX Gaming （天选）lineup is a China-exclusive, so I imported the full set from Taobao (China’s equivalent of AliExpress). The lineup consists of four themed components:
1. ASUS TX GAMING CASE A23 HATSUNE MIKU EDITION (华硕天选 A23 机箱初音未来版)
2. ASUS TX GAMING B850M GAMING WIFI S HATSUNE MIKU EDITION (华硕天选B850主板 初音未来版)
3. ASUS TX GAMING LC III 360 ARGB LCD HATSUNE MIKU EDITION (华硕天选 360 LCD 水冷初音未来版)
4. ASUS TX RTX5060TI O8G HATSUNE MIKU EDITION (华硕天选 TX-RTX5060TI O8G 显卡初音未来版)
Apart from the above components, I have chosen the other following parts to pair with my build:
1. CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 7700 MPK – not pictured, but excellent performance-per-dollar.
2. RAM: KLEVV CRAS V RGB 16GB x2 @ 6000MT/s (White) – visually matches the aesthetic.
3. SSD: WD Black SN850X 1TB – my personal choice for fast NVMe storage.
4. PSU: Seasonic Core GX-650 (White) – reliable and efficient.
5. Fans: ASUS TUF TR120 ARGB (White, 4x) – installed in empty fan bays.
The Case: A23 Hatsune Miku Edition
This is a modified version of the standard ASUS A23 chassis with Hatsune Miku-themed visual enhancements. It features:
- Custom steel front panel with ventilation holes and signature Miku colorway
- Additional decorative touches: jazz music symbols, a headphone hanger, and Miku-themed side markings
- The front panel has number 01 vertically printed, referencing Miku’s character number
- On the opposite side, the number 39 appears—a Japanese wordplay meaning “Miku” (三=Mi, 九=Ku)
- BTF-compatible interior with ventilated bottom chamber and removable cable shroud
- Miku artwork on the top dust filter
- I/O Ports: Power Switch > Power LED > USB-A 3.2 Gen1 > Audio Jacks > USB-C 3.2 Gen2 > Reset Switch
Package includes: Front panel cable connectors, a full set of screws, manual, and Hatsune Miku decorative accessories.
The Motherboard: B850M WiFi S Hatsune Miku Edition
Based on the TUF Gaming B850M-PLUS WIFI, this version trades some specs for aesthetics and theming. Key differences and highlights:
- Uses Realtek ALC897 audio codec (a downgrade from TUF’s ALC S1220A)
- Lacks onboard ARGB lighting RGB LED, surprisingly for a themed board, but instead you get 3x ARGB headers.
- Features a lenticular hologram that switches between Hatsune Miku and TX Gaming mascot depending on viewing angle
- 4x DDR5 slots, PCIe Gen5 x16 slot with Q-Release, and 3x M.2 slots (2 with Q-Latch tool-free design)
- Rear I/O drops 2 audio jacks compared to TUF but otherwise maintains full port selection
- Dual EPS 12V CPU power support
- Aesthetics include Chinese character labels and TX/Miku-themed heatsink covers
Included accessories: Manual (QIG), SATA cables, Wi-Fi antenna, M.2 rubber pads and screws, themed stickers, and a collaboration poster.
The Cooler: LC III 360 ARGB LCD – Hatsune Miku Edition
This AIO seems to be based on the TUF Gaming LC III 360 ARGB LCD, but with vibrant Miku customization. Highlights:
- Features a 2.8″ IPS LCD on the pump block (with noticeable bezels)
- Pump has PWM and USB 2.0 connectors for control and LCD data
- Fans are a single unit triple-fan design (not modular), powered by a single 4-pin PWM and an ARGB cable
- Pre-applied thermal paste
- Clean white tubing, colorful fan housing, and Hatsune Miku & TX logos on the cooler body
Included accessories: Brackets, screws, and Miku-themed stickers and poster.
The Graphics Card: RTX 5060Ti O8G – Hatsune Miku Edition
This card appears to be ASUS’s own TX Gaming design, not part of the TUF, Dual, Prime, or ROG series. Visually stunning but with performance caveats:
- Features 8GB VRAM, which limits performance in some modern titles (16GB would’ve been ideal)
- Custom white shroud with TX & Miku artwork, ARGB light strip, and an X-cutout on the backplate
- 8-pin power connector
- Display outputs: 3x DisplayPort, 1x HDMI

Final Thoughts & Pricing:
Building this PC was a fun and satisfying experience. While some of the parts sacrifice high-end features for aesthetics (like the motherboard’s audio or GPU VRAM), the overall harmony of the build is hard to beat. It’s clearly a collector’s piece as much as a functional system, ideal for Miku fans who also enjoy custom PC building.
In terms of pricing, the motherboard cost me around $220 USD, the GPU was approximately $530 USD, and the case + AIO set came bundled for about $230 USD. Altogether, it’s a premium setup primarily driven by its collectible value and unique design.
