A refreshing change with Thermaltake's power supply exhibition this CES was that it brought out all its mid-range capacities ranging between 750 W to 1000 W. This is the only narrow band in which you can expect 12VHPWR or 12V-2x6 connectors that are rated for 450 W or above, which is needed if you plan on GPUs such as the RTX 4080 SUPER or above. The new Toughpower SFX Platinum series comes in the traditional SFX form-factor, and in high wattage models such as 750 W, 850 W, and 1000 W. It fully meets the latest ATX 3.1 specification, and comes with a native 12V-2x6 connector (a more mechanically sound 12VHPWR successor). The Toughpower SFX has broadly two variants, Gold and Platinum, aligning with their respective 80 Plus ratings.

Thermaltake shows us their third generation of Dr Power, the hardware-based in-line PSU tester. The new Dr Power III is aware of ATX 3.1, and has a native 12V-2x6 connector that's compatible with 12VHPWR. With this, you can check for faults in any of the voltage domains. The 24-pin connector should tell you if any of the smaller voltage domains such as 5 V, 5 Vsb, and 3.3 V, has suffered a fault.
