Thermaltake GF2 ARGB (750w) TT Premium Edition PSU Review
Mike Sanders / 4 years ago
How Much Does it Cost?
With it set to hit retailers in the UK on February 19th, the Thermaltake GF2 ARGB 750w power supply will come with a price tag of around £134.99. So getting one elephant out of the room very quickly, and just in case you needed confirmation of it, this PSU isn’t cheap, and it’s certainly not budgeted or designed as an ‘entry-level’ product.
Comparatively speaking, however, while there are, of course, many power supplies that offer similar levels of performance, at least to my knowledge, none of them carry the aesthetics that the GF2 ARGB does and, quite frankly, I think that the truly unique and vibrant visual appearance does warrant the expense.
Performance
As can be seen throughout our testing, the Thermaltake GF2 ARGB did not fail to impress us as a completely solid and well-designed power supply. Be it efficiency, ripple, fan speed, PFC, or voltage regulation, the results provided speak volumes of a quality product.
Yes, there are a few tiny niggles we could make about an even smaller number of results in certain tests. In all honesty, though, it would only be for the sake of nit-picking. Overall, this PSU is practically faultless!
Practicality & Functionality
With its plethora of impressive features, the Thermaltake GF2 ARGB is definitely a truly top-contender in the power supply market. A high-efficiency rating (that our testing entirely confirmed), a fully modular cable design, Japanese main capacitors (and good ones too). Put simply, these are all the boxes that the savvy PSU consumer should be looking to tick off when choosing their next model, and even if you completely disregard the ARGB lighting effects, which admittedly is hard to ignore, then the GF2 ARGB still remains a fantastic choice!
Should I Buy One?
With increasing numbers of PC owners choosing tempered glass PC cases, having a power supply that can add to the light show and overall presentation is undoubtedly a very tempting proposition. Make no bones about it though, while the ARGB effects are impressive, underneath them still beats the heart of one of the best power supplies Thermaltake has released to date.
The Thermaltake GF2 ARGB TT Premium Edition power supply comes wattage outputs ranging from 650w-850w. Whichever one you pick to suit your needs, you’re going to be very happy with what Thermaltake has offer!
