Efficiency, PFC and Voltage Regulation


Voltage Regulation

Given that the Thermaltake Smart RGB 700w is a budget-level power supply, you might be wondering if there are any points of concern in the testing. In terms of voltage regulation, there are none. If anything the results are remarkably good. With practically no deviancy found across all ranges of testing it was highly impressive.

In addition, having good consistent figures at different load levels is always a major positive for any power supply.

Power Efficiency

Despite the Thermaltake Smart RGB 700w being 80-Plus rated, it isn’t bronze certified. Despite this though, the efficiency levels are actually really good. On our testing, it easily falls within the remit of bronze efficiency and very nearly tiptoes into the Silver rating. When you consider that this is a budget-level power supply, the efficiency is absolutely top notch.

Power Factor Correction

The PFC ratings for the Thermaltake Smart RGB 500w are a little unusual. This is, however, in a good way. Usually, we expect to see them start low, get high and go back down again at full load. In this instance though, the power supply just kept getting better the more the power was applied. This is definitely a big plus mark for this PSU.
