GaN MOSFET

The ROG Thor 1200W Platinum III PSU boasts an innovative GaN MOSFET that deliver up to 30% more power efficiency than standard MOSFETs. Plus, the smaller size of a GaN MOSFET allows for a more organized internal layout. This optimized design provides space for larger heatsinks and enhanced airflow, improving heat dissipation.

Voltage Sensing Mode

"GPU-FIRST" Voltage Sensing

with patented intelligent voltage stabilizer (IVS)

Activate the "GPU-First" voltage sensing by connecting the IVS cable. This innovative feature enhances voltage stability by up to 45%, even during demanding gaming sessions and overclocking scenarios. If you prefer conventional CPU-focused voltage sensing, simply disconnect the IVS cable. With this advanced technology, you can experience smooth and consistent gaming.

Disclaimer: The "GPU-First" intelligent voltage stabilizer is designed exclusively for 16-pin PCIe power cables. This feature is not available for 8-pin PCIe power cables.

0dB Technology

Quiet intelligence

To reduce noise output, the PWM-controlled fan shuts off entirely when the PSU load is at 30% or below.

In 0dB mode (button pressed), the fan continues to spin when transitioning from high to low loads, ensuring safe temperatures are reached before stopping.
