The back sides of motherboards typically aren't that exciting, but ASUS wants to change that with the B760M-BTF WIFI D4, a new TUF GAMING motherboard that offers a range of expected features, but not in the locations that users would normally expect. As detailed in a product update on ASUS' official website, the B760M-BTF WIFI D4 is a unique motherboard from the manufacturer that relocates various headers and connectors, including Thunderbolt, USB, and M.2, to the rear of the board, a design choice that is said to enable easier setup and optimized cable management. That said, this motherboard is only compatible with specific case models.

MSI did one in conjunction with a special case last year if memory serves.
 
I've always wondered why the 24 pin and CPU power connectors were not on the back of the motherboard. Never made sense to me to feed those cables from behind the mobo just to loop them and plug in on the front of the mobo. It's also nice to see some other connectors on the back as well. Can make for a really clean build.
