ENGINEERING

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.

"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.

Cybenetics Lambda A++ Certification

Quietly deviant

On average, ROG Thor 1200W Platinum III emits less than 15 dB of noise – earning a coveted Cybenetics Lambda A++ certification.

80 PLUS Platinum Certification

The ROG Thor 1200W Platinum III utilizes low-ESR Japanese capacitors to ensure efficient operation. These upgrades enable 80 PLUS Platinum certification, which guarantees 89% efficiency at 100% load and 92% efficiency at 50% load. The increased efficiency results in less heat, reduced fan noise, and increased reliability.

ROG Heatsinks

Cool under pressure

ROG heatsinks facilitate lower temperatures, longer component lifespan, and extended 0dB operation.

Dual-Ball-Fan Bearings

2X longer lifespan

Dual-ball bearings boast a remarkable lifespan of up to 80,000 hours, twice as long as sleeve bearings and exceeding even fluid dynamic bearings. This helps to ensure long-lasting and reliable cooling with minimal noise for the ROG Thor 1200W Platinum III.

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.

EXPERIENCE

Magnetic OLED Display

This detachable magnetic OLED display showcases real-time power draw, providing insights to your system's performance and efficiency. The magnetic attachment can be swapped to either side of the unit for fan-up or fan-down PSU installation, depending on the design of your case, so you can maintain optimal airflow without compromising monitoring.

Turbo Mode

Turbo Mode unlocks support for extended power excursions, courtesy of a fine-tuned fan curve and premium components. Enjoy unwavering performance when you need it most, and switch between peak performance and ultimate silence with just a press of the Turbo Mode button on the rear of the PSU.

I'm upgrading my PC to the most powerful card in the world 🔥ROG ASTRAL GeForce RTX 5090 OC

I BOUGHT THE MOST POWERFUL PC IN EXISTENCE (for gmod)!!! 🔥

So, today I'm going to talk about this ultimate gaming PC that I put together for this video.

The most powerful PBA available

If you want everything at once, and even more, ASUS ROG Thor 1000W Platinum III will be just right for you.

The system is powered by a newcomer to our main test bench, the ASUS ROG Thor 1200W Platinum 3, which is the flagship power supply for the most demanding systems.

PSUs usually need to be installed with a good extra potential, so I would take the same block here, for 1200 W.

One of the most powerful and beautiful computers I have ever built.
