PSU OEM Major CWT's First-party PSU Designs at Computex 2024
Channel Well Technology (CWT) is a major OEM of PC and server power supplies, as well as power bricks for notebooks and consumer electronics. The company is also selling PSUs in the retail channel under its own brand, just the way Seasonic and Fortron do. These can be seen as de-facto reference designs for the brand. We begin our tour of CWT with the HPN line of hot-swappable redundant power supplies. A 1000 W model was on display, which meets ATX 3.1 and PCIe Gen 5.1 specs (cutting-edge), along with 80 Plus Gold switching efficiency.
The CTT series are the company's enthusiast-segment high-Wattage PSUs for gaming PCs. These 80 Plus Titanium efficiency-rated PSUs come in 1350 W and 1650 W variants, meet ATX 3.1 and PCIe Gen 5.1 specs, and offer two 600 W-capable 12V-2x6 connectors, besides two 4+4 pin EPS, and half a dozen 6+2 pin PCIe power. There is an even larger 2000 W model, although we're not sure if this meets 80 Plus Titanium. It uses dual +12 V rails, and offers two 600 W 12V-2x6, besides four EPS, and six 6+2 pin PCIe, making it ideal for Ryzen Threadripper or Xeon W high-end desktops or workstations; or even 2P servers.
