Thermaltake Brings New Toughpower SFX Power Supplies to Computex 2023

Thermaltake has unveiled a whole new range of Toughpower SFX power supplies at the Computex 2023 show in Taipei. Since smaller SFF builds are becoming quite popular these days, it does not come as a surprise that Thermaltake is pushing this PSU form-factor to a whole new level. Thermaltake is not a stranger when it comes to SFX power supplies but its current Toughpower SFX Gold lineup will be expanded with new higher output models and given an ATX 3.0 specification, and it is introducing the new Toughpower SFX Platinum series.

The Thermaltake Toughpower SFX Gold lineup was already available in 450 W, 550 W, 650 W, and 750 W versions, but now, Thermaltake is bringing new 750 W, 850 W, and 1000 W models, which are all compatible with ATX 3.0 specifications and feature a native PCIe 5.0 12+4-pin modular interface. The Toughpower SFX Gold 750 W and 850 W models will use a standard SFX form-factor, while the 1000 W model will be based on a slightly longer SFX-L form factor. The star of the PSU show is the Toughpower SFX Platinum series, also coming in 750 W, 850 W, and 1000 W models, and as the name suggests, these have 80 Plus Platinum efficiency. The Toughpower SFX Platinum will also be compatible with ATX 3.0 specifications and feature the same native PCIe 5.0 12+4-pin modular interface. Both the Toughpower SFX Gold and the Toughpower SFX Platinum series are bundled with SFX to ATX adapter bracket. We expect them both in retail/e-tail soon.

Wow, we're getting to 1000W SFX! If this keeps up I hope SFX becomes the standard. Saving room is good!

Neat, shame that SFX isnt a common standard. Modern cases are so big and waste so much room to hold legacy ATX hardware.

Silverstone has had one for two years. Sadly manufacturers are not interested in making smaller case designs apparently.

The Silverstone you linked is SFX-L, which is slightly longer than SFX.

If I'm not mistaken, from the article, there are 2 versions: the 1000W Gold is SFX-L and the 1000W Platinum is SFX.
