Asus ROG PSUs with digital readout, any news on release?

I saw an asus booth displaying some of their new ROG psus, i'm not sure on the original manufacturer but they look absolutely awesome, they have a digital wattage readout on the side (something very handy and innovative that i have never seen before) and also has the new standard rgb features.
Since seeing them a couple of months back, ive heard no more news about them at all, has anyone else seen Asus' recent attempt at a psu? and does anyone have anymore news on potential release dates etc?

I agree if they go too expensive for them, they probably wont sell as well as they intend, however, without the extra bits and bobs and wiring etc, it really is a stunning looking psu. That handy wattage draw indication of the side panel really does set it off without the need or added hassle, wiring or space extra.

The psus are made by someone pretty decent but I cant remember who it was (delta, superflower or seasonic perhaps?). They are decent platinum efficient psus with high end jap caps throughout I imagine.

1200w ? ehh no thanks.

would rather stick to the 8pack 2000w psu instead

Why is that? You running a render farm or mining or something?

yeah looks good the price isn't as much as I thought but still very expensive

It is when I only paid 160 or whatever for a superflower designed evga platinum 850 p2 with the same 10 warranty and jap caps throughout for a fair bit less.
