TWSE · PCs & AI servers · ROG gaming, premier NVIDIA AI-POD provider
ASUSTeK Computer
A top-tier global PC brand (notebooks, motherboards, graphics cards, ROG gaming) that has ridden into AI servers as a premier provider of NVIDIA GB300 NVL72-based AI PODs. FY2024 revenue rebounded to NT$587.1bn (+22%) with net profit +91%, but the real axis is a mix shift — AI-server revenue is growing triple digits in 2025 (guided ≥100%, nearing ~20% of sales), reshaping a low-growth PC brand into a high-growth infrastructure business. The question is whether AI-server growth offsets cyclical PC demand and the margin pressure from component costs (NVIDIA GPUs, Intel/AMD CPUs) — Morgan Stanley stays Underweight at NT$500 on valuation and margins.

Pays to
- NVIDIA (GPUs, GB200/GB300) High confidence
The core supplier of GPUs for AI servers and gaming — GB200/GB300 NVL72 (72 Blackwell GPUs) for ESC AI PODs and RTX for GeForce/ROG. The AI-POD business effectively stands on NVIDIA's platform, so GPU allocation and pricing are the single largest dependency shaping ASUS's AI-server growth and margin.Confirms EN ASUSTeK Computer Published Mar 30, 2025: ASUSTeK Computer — 2024 Annual Report (official IR)Confirms EN DigiTimes Published Feb 24, 2025: Asus and Gigabyte secure major AI server orders from NVIDIA - Intel (x86 CPUs, chipsets) High confidence
A primary source of x86 CPUs and chipsets for PCs, notebooks and motherboards — flagship models such as the 2025 ROG G16 use Core Ultra CPUs. CPU generations and supply drive PC-product competitiveness and launch timing, an upstream dependency.Confirms EN ASUSTeK Computer Published Mar 30, 2025: ASUSTeK Computer — 2024 Annual Report (official IR) - AMD (Ryzen/EPYC CPUs, Radeon) High confidence
An upstream supplier dual-sourced with Intel for CPUs/GPUs — Ryzen CPUs and Radeon in ROG gaming, EPYC in servers, reducing sole reliance on Intel. CPU dual-sourcing is a lever for procurement leverage and lineup flexibility.Confirms EN ASUSTeK Computer Published Mar 30, 2025: ASUSTeK Computer — 2024 Annual Report (official IR) - Component & material suppliers (memory, panels, PCB; undisclosed) Medium confidence
Sources memory, panels, PCBs and other parts through channel distributors, with the top two supplier groups at 24% and 14% of purchases (anonymized in the filing). Component prices and supply are the key swing factor for brand-business margin, making diversification and inventory management central.Confirms EN ASUSTeK Computer Published Mar 30, 2025: ASUSTeK Computer — 2024 Annual Report (official IR)

YTD as of 2026-09-04 · source: Yahoo Finance
ASUSTeK Computer operates across TWSE, PCs & AI servers, ROG gaming, premier NVIDIA AI-POD provider. After -14.1% in 2025, it rebounded +119.8% in 2026. The stock (+119.8%) and its supply side (avg +102.1%) are moving in step. Among connected nodes the furthest ahead is Intel (+159.6%) and the furthest behind is NVIDIA (+23.7%). If chain logic explains the gap, the laggard is the next propagation candidate; if not, the link itself deserves a second look. The question is whether AI-server growth offsets cyclical PC demand and the margin pressure from component costs (NVIDIA GPUs, Intel/AMD CPUs) — Morgan Stanley stays Underweight at NT$500 on valuation and margins.
