Thermaltake has today revealed new versions of its Toughpower GF3 1200W and GF A3 850W and 1050W power supplies featuring a new white colour scheme.
Thermaltake Toughpower GF3 1200W Snow Edition
Now available in white is the Toughpower GF3 1200W which is an ATX 3.0 PSU capable of up to 300% GPU power excursion and 200% total power excursion capable of handling the power spikes of some of the latest components. This PSU is packed with 100% high-quality Japanese 105°C/221°F electrolytic capacitors to provide the highest durability and reliability. It offers an 80-Plus Gold efficiency rating plus stricter regulations over Intel’s of <30 mV low ripple noise design, voltage regulation <±2%, and >17 ms hold-up time. Cooling all the internals is a 140mm fluid dynamic bearing fan with a Smart Zero Fan design and physical switch.

Features
- Fully Compatible With Intel PSDG ATX 3.0 Specifications
Toughpower GF3 Snow series is fully compatible with Intel ATX 3.0 Specifications which supports up to 200% power excursion, reaches 60% low load efficiency and complies with required power supply timing standards. The GF3 Snow series can sustain up to 3x GPU power excursion and 2x total power excursion. - Made to Comply with the Latest Graphics Cards
As the power consumption of graphics cards has increased, so has their demand for power. The GF3 Snow series is designed to support NVIDIA and AMD graphics cards, ready to supply the graphics card according to their different ways of connections. - PCIe Gen 5.0 Ready
Toughpower GF3 Snow comes with a 12+4-pin connector to offer powerful and stable performance allowing the PSU to run next-generation GPUs naturally. - 80 Plus Gold Certified
Tough power GF3 Snow series saves energy through its high energy efficiency up to 90% and is certified to 80 Plus Gold. The series has been optimized to work with all generations of Intel’s processors to achieve maximum energy saving. - Ultra Quiet Smart Zero Fan
Designed with our Smart Zero Fan, the fan will not spin until the load exceeds certain percentage of the power supply, minimizing the fan noise. - <30 mV Low Ripple Noise Design
Top-end build quality with low ripple noise. GF3 1200 W Snow’s all ripples are lower than 30 mV on +12V, +5V or +3.3V from 0% to 100% load to ensure a stable operation and keep your performance-critical components to function reliably for longer. - Extremely Strict Voltage Regulation
The voltage regulation of the GF3 Snow series complies with Intel’s standard +5%, -7% for major rails, and GF3 1200 W Snow is set to no more than ±2% for major rails, providing steady clean power through exceptional voltage stability. - 100% High Quality Japanese 105°C/221°F Capacitors
Providing great durability as well as offering the highest stability, while remaining reliable. - High Amperage Single +12V Rail & High-Class Technologies
Powerful single +12V rail can properly deliver the power you need for the best compatibility. The use of LLC and DC to DC circuit design provides very stable operation and enhanced voltage regulation. - Superior Cooling Performance
GF3 1200 W Snow features a 140 mm fluid bearing fan to guarantee superior cooling performance. - Fully Modular Low-Profile Flat Cables
Offers cable selection for users while powering the system at an advantageous voltage. Low-profile flat white cable makes cable management easier, reduces clutter and increases airflow inside the chassis. - 80 Plus Gold Certified and Intel C6/C7 States Ready
Toughpower GF3 Snow series saves energy through its high energy efficiency up to 90% and is certified to 80 Plus Gold. The series has been optimized to work with all generations of Intel’s processors to achieve maximum energy saving.
ToughPower GF A3 850W/1050W Snow Edition
The ToughPower GF A3 series is also ATX 3.0 certified and both the 850W and 1050W models now feature a snow white design. These power supplies feature high-quality components with 100% Japanese capacitors as well as a suite of complete industry-grade protections (OCP, OVP, UVP, OPP, SCP, OTP) for peace of mind. This PSU features a smaller 120mm Fluid Dynamic bearing fan again with Smart-Zero mode for reduced noise.
