Ripple
Given that the Thermaltake Smart RGB 700w is an inexpensive power supply, you might have concerns as to the consistency in which the power is delivered. The ripple testing, however, should remove any worries in that regard. Across all testing, the results were fantastically consistent and all massively within acceptable margins.
It’s actually something of a surprise that this even outperformed its 500w brother. In direct comparison, although the 5v is a little higher on the 700w, the 12v is a lot more stable.
