This power supply from XFX is a fantastic addition to any system with enough juice to power even the most extreme gaming rigs at a continuous stream of 750 watts. Instead of having multiple 12V rails, they have decided to use a single 12v rail with extremely stable outputs.
In my relatively short-lived career as a hardware reviewer I have come across a lot of brand names making (or sometimes rebadging) a lot of different products at numerous price points and market segments. Yet Thortech are a brand that I personally haven't come across before, except briefly in one video which I saw on YouTube that absolutely tore into one of their PSUs - rightly or wrongly is not something I am prepared to comment on as I don't know all the ins and outs. Thortech are actually a division of the brand "GeIL" or Golden Emperor International Limited best known for making RAM modules. They have been in the business of making consumer power supplies for only a short while, just over 2 years as far as I know, and in that time they haven't really managed to gain much traction in the consumer market place. Despite that GeIL has been making industrial power supplies for around 15 years so is certainly no stranger to the world of power supplies - which gives us great hope for the quality of their products. Today we are looking at one of Thortech's largest wattage power supplies - the Thunderbolt 1200W.
If we just sit back and consider this product's credentials then it actually has a lot going for it. Firstly, it provides a large amount of power (1200W) at a very high efficiency level (80 Plus Gold). Secondly, it does this in a relatively compact form factor for a PSU of its wattage, looking more like the size we'd expect to see a 650-850W PSU in. Thirdly it offers up a semi modular design and is reasonably attractive - especially if you like hints of yellow. It is worth noting that this power supplies, while still current and sold, is actually kind-of dated. In fact we received this review sample well over 18 months ago, sadly right before our PSU load tester blew up. Now we are up and running again with PSU reviews we are finally able to test it so without any further ado let us proceed with this review to see if the Thortech Thunderbolt 1200W PSU is any good or not.
Mit seiner "Germany Series" geht Thermaltake unter deutschen Netzteilkäufern auf Kundenfang. Die Geräte heißen Munich, Hamburg und Berlin, wobei typische Gebäudesilhouetten der jeweiligen Stadt das Netzteil zieren. Doch was steckt unter dem Blech? Wir haben das Top-Modell Berlin 630W getestet.
Um eines vorwegzunehmen: Die "Germany Series" ist weder "made in Germany" noch bieten die Geräte technische Innovationen. Thermaltake versucht hier vielmehr über den Preis zu punkten, ohne ein wirklich billiges Produkt abzuliefern. Der Hersteller verspricht stattdessen ein preiswertes Gerät, also ein Netzteil, das seinen Preis auch tatsächlich wert ist. Beim Berlin 630W bedeutet dies 630 Watt Dauerlast, 80 Plus Zertifizierung und 3 Jahre Garantie.
Today we are looking at the new flagship power supply from XFX – the new Pro 1250W Black Edition.

The LEPA already had a power supply series called "G," with 500 W, 700 W, and 900 W models. We reviewed the 500 W and 700 W models, and they deserved our recommendation. Now LEPA is releasing 650 W, 750 W, and 850 W models within its "G" series, but those models are manufactured by a different company. Let's see how the new 850 W model fared in our tests.
Antec sells decent high-end power supplies, but how about their more affordable models? Today we decided to review a 500 W from their Basiq series (BP500U) that costs only USD 60. Will it survive our tests?
Corsair gives the HX850 PSU an overhaul and sets a new benchmark for DC output quality in the process.
The Aurum 92+ is the new 80 Plus Platinum power supply series from FSP, featuring a modular cabling system and four +12 V rails. Let’s see how the 650 W model fared on our tests.
Après une excellente E9 en 680 watts, nous nous attachons à tester ce jour le modèle en 580 watts. Une alimentation proche de la 680 watts, qui s'offre encore et toujours des câbles modulaires et une certification en 80 Plus Gold. Ce modèle un peu mois puissant et un peu moins cher sera-t-il capable de remplir son office sans peine ? Réponse maintenant.
