Gigabyte AORUS Reveals “Project Stealth,” A Line of Components with Rear Connectors to Hide Cables

If you got tired of trying to sort your cables and they still get cluttered, or you just don’t like to see cables on your PC, Gigabyte’s AORUS division might have the perfect, or at least near-perfect solution with “Project Stealth” a new line of components with all connectors located on the back so that not a single cable is visible on your PC.

The first real images from “Project Stealth” show us an AORUS Z690 motherboard with all the connectors on the back, giving us an idea of ​​what to expect from this product line. From power connectors to USB, audio, or even fan connectors are on the back, so as not to leave a single cable exposed on the front. This obviously implies that the cabinet will have to have holes to access said connectors, so we cannot use these motherboards from “Project Stealth” in any cabinet, but we must buy a Gigabyte cabinet compatible with our motherboard to be able to place it. No problem.

The company also showed a render of a “Project Stealth” graphics card with power connectors at the bottom, which will allow these connectors to be accessible directly from the rear of the case, avoiding the need to pass visible cables and completely eliminating the largest cables in the system which are the power cables.

Combining a motherboard, a graphics card and a “Project Stealth” enclosure, an assembly should be achieved without any power cable in sight, and we would only see some cables such as those of the AIO and / or the fans of the case and the cooler of the CPU. These are unfortunately difficult to hide, although with a good job they can be made almost invisible.

Unfortunately Gigabyte did not elaborate on “Project Stealth”, although with CES 2022 just around the corner and the first prototypes already underway, we may see a real full system at that event, giving us our first real look at this new design. Gigabyte AORUS “cable free”.

What do you think about AORUS’s “Project Stealth”? Do you think buying an exact combination of motherboard, graphics card and enclosure is justified in order to hide all the cables?
