Thermalright Brings a Huge Lineup of PSUs to Computex 2024

[btarunr]

Thermalright brought a large lineup of contemporary high-end PSUs to Computex 2024. The lineup is led by the flagship AT1650 Titanium. This beast has 1650 W of power on tap, and meets ATX 3.1 with PCIe 5 specs. It puts out not one, but two 16-pin 12V-2x6 connectors, both capable of 600 W. Besides this, you get two 8-pin EPS, at least six 6+2 pin PCIe power, and close to a dozen SATA power and other peripheral connectors. Its 80 Plus Titanium switching efficiency makes the dual 600 W 12V-2x6 configuration possible. The TG-1650-W offers the same 1650 W, and two 12V-2x6, but with lower 80 Plus Gold switching efficiency.

The company also has a couple of high-Wattage SFX and SFX-L PSUs, the TGFX850 and TGFX1000, which as their names suggest, deliver 850 W and 1000 W, respectively. You get full modular cabling, one 600 W-capable 12V-2x6, and dual 8-pin EPS. Switching gears back to the conventional ATX/PS2 form-factor, and there are the TG-1200, TP-1000, and TG-1000-W, which are 80 Plus Gold, 80 Plus Platinum, and 80 Plus Gold-rated, respectively; and each offer a 600 W 12V-2x6.

Pretty cool and caught me totally off guard. Now to wait and see how our guy at hardwarebusters says they do.

When just a 5-Year warranty as their other PSU's, it's a no buy...

Warranty：5 Years

interesting,
5 year warranty and 40c rated? Not exactly high hurdles to jump over especially if you want to compete with the better of XPG, Seasonic, and Corsair that's out there
that flagship sounds like a high power platform that's already on the market but until thats confirmed or someone opens it up we won't know

I don't care about the PSUs; if they want to be a proper player they need to totally revamp their customer support/RMA processes in North America. It's an understatement to say that it's total dogshit in its current form - non-existent would be more accurate.

For $30 coolers that's fine, can literally just buy a new one if outside of the Amazon return window. For PSUs it's unacceptable. When I looked at it last year TR didn't even have info on their website about the actual length of warranty on their products.

For PSUs it's unacceptable

considering even the best brands have DOAs due to shipping ,, that can go south real quick. Never knew they were that bad

Hmm if only 5 year warranty, that is on the low side compared to other manufacturer of psu's.

My own Phanteks Revolt X 1200 watt has 12 years warranty. It's designet by Phanteks, but manufacturer and built by Seasonic. Besides the fan can be a bit more noisy than i would have liked, i am fairly happy with it the 3 years i had it so far. Also the very unique feature of capable of running two systems on this single psu makes it stand out from the rest.

However a low warranty doesnt mean it total crap. I don't know about thermalright psu, but i had a thermaltake toughtpower 1500 watt psu before and had it for 12 years and when i sold it, still worked perfectly fine. My point is that it also only came with 5 year warranty back then in 2009 when i got it.

This is the warranty page, it's still unchanged. Doesn't specify warranty period, tells you to look at the product packaging for it (LOL). The RMA link to the supposed portal is still broken. At one point one of the links on the page went to something Corsair related.

I have various Thermalright products, but I'm not afraid to call their support what it is - utterly unacceptable.

I had the same problem when trying to find out how to get a replacement for a damaged fan (UPS)on one of my PAs. Couldn't find anything that led me to an actual working link or phone number anywhere on their website.

Now, I do.

If that was purposeful, someone needs to tell them:
In The West / English1st Speaking World "Alright" often means 'barely acceptable', 'sub-par', 'not great', 'just okay', 'unexcited/unexciting', 'normal/nominal', etc.

Also, can't unsee their (upsidedown?) emblem as a grimacing face, either.

I'm all for affordable gear, but a PSU is not something you want to cheap out on.

Not a great showing from TR.


Addendum: Value is yet to be seen.
'Will need to know release MSRP and ODM (who builds it) and/or build quality.

5yr warranty is lacking amongst premium brands, yes.
I'd still consider 'em if they had a similar sales model to their HSFs: cheap but quality, with only the most-unluckiest needing the non-existent support/warranty.
Basically, bulk-purchase PSUs from a reputable ODM, cased, branded, and sold near-BOM by TR.

Off-topic, but related, to be fair my experiences with Corsair CS is pretty good. I accidentally broke one of the glass panels (the backside) off my 5000X case and they gave me a choice if I want the full-metal one (from the 5000D) or if I want the same glass panel. After a week they sent me a new one without needing to pay anything.

They replaced a Corsair Virtuoso XT T-Pain edition after I reported intermittent wireless connectivity (2.4G, not BT) with it. I did not need to send the defective one back, so I scavenged the earpads and other attachable accessories (earpads, USB-C cable, etc.) as future parts of the replacement.

For now, I can only trust Thermalright with their CPU coolers and maybe their fans, but they're very affordable to not even worry too much about the warranty.

I'm not knocking Corsair. For the industry, they may have the best CS out there.

@freeagent

I saw the HWC video lol.. made me a bit moist

Glad to see Thermalright is back in full force, and kicking ass

 

[Chomiq]

Their cooling lineup is something special:

Highest priced option? $45.

Yeah I know, I'm just adding to your idea. The only thing I would dislike or even hate about Corsair is iCue.
