Thermaltake Toughpower GF3 Snow 1200 Watt ATX 3.0 Power Supply Review

A Closer Look

The GF3 Snow looks amazing, with that brilliant white paint finish and a matching white fan, it’s the same “snow” colour we see throughout many Thermaltake products, so it should all match up with the aesthetics of dozens of Snow-series products.

Down the side of the PSU, there’s the usual branding, but also a little extra ventilation. We don’t normally see ventilation on the side of a PSU, but it certainly couldn’t hurt!

Around the back, there are surprisingly few ports for a 1200W PSU, but keep in mind a 12VHPWR cable can deliver 600W, and it would take 3 x PCIE cables to do the same.

On the bottom, you can see the full rail specifications too, and a 100A on the +12V is certainly impressive!

At the back, even more of that lovely ventilation, but also a smart zero fan switch. With it turned on, the fan will stop spinning at lower temperatures and loads, but with it on, the PSU fan will always be active.
