Thermaltake TOUGHPOWER PF3 1050W Platinum Power Supply Review

 

Overview

Toughpower PF3 series is 80 PLUS Platinum certified and fully compatible with Intel’s ATX 3.0 specifications. Designed with a native PCIe Gen 5 connector, it can power up next-gen technology with one new 12VHPWR cable.

Power Up Next Generation Hardware

To fully support next-gen hardware, Toughpower PF3 Platinum Series (750W/850W/1050W/1200W) is designed to meet ATX 3.0 standards, including a PCIe Gen 5.0 12VHPWR connector. The PF3 Platinum series delivers 80 PLUS Platinum efficiency, it also offers the highest stability, durability, and reliability.

Fully Compatible with Intel ATX 3.0 Standards

Toughpower PF3 Platinum series is fully compatible with Intel ATX 3.0 Specifications which supports up to 200% power excursion, reaches 70% low load efficiency and complies with required power supply timing standards.

PCIe Gen 5.0 Ready

Toughpower PF3 series comes with a 16pin connector to offer powerful and stable performance allowing the PSU to natively run next-generation GPUs.
The wattage marked on the 12VHPWR’s connector is the recommended wattage. (Ref. Intel design guideline) The native 16 PIN (12VHPWR) PCIe connector of the PF3 1050W can deliver up to 600W for PCIe 5.0 graphics cards.

Note:

    • 1. Recommended wattage is an estimation of system power demand. Actual power demands may vary based on specific components, usage, and many other factors.
    • 2. Please follow the recommended power requirements from the GPU manufactures before using the 12VHPWR cable.

Made to Comply with the Latest Graphics Cards

As the power consumption of graphics cards increase, so has their demand for power. The PF3 Platinum series is designed to support NVIDIA and AMD graphics cards, and ready to supply the graphics cards according to their different ways of connections.

80 PLUS Platinum Certified

80 Plus Platinum certification means the Toughpower PF3 converts power efficiently, resulting in lower power loss and heat buildup inside the power supply.

Compact Design with 140mm Depth

The Toughower PF3 Plantinum Series is designed to be compact with size of 140mm (D) x 86mm (H) x 150mm (W) which provides ample space for cable management.

Be Smart, Stay Quiet

Featuring a 120mm fluid dynamic bearing fan to create the perfect balance between silence and superior cooling. Furthermore, the Smart Zero Fan will adjust the fan speed and minimizes undesired noise.

Extremely Strict Voltage Regulation <±2%

The voltage regulation is more strict than Intel’s standard +5%,-7% for major rails and ±10% for -12V, is set to no more than ±2% for major rails, providing steady clean power through exceptional voltage stability.

More Stable than Ever

100% high quality Japanese 105°C/221°F electrolytic capacitors provides 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.

Fully Modular Low-Profile Cables

Offers cable selection for users while powering the system at an advantageous voltage. Low-profile black cables make cable management easier, reduces clutter and increases airflow inside the chassis.

Intel C6/C7 States Ready

The PF3 series has been optimized to work with all generations of Intel processors to achieve maximum energy saving.
