Unboxing and scope of delivery
Thermaltake has used the typical exterior design with the small perforations on the fan grille and outlet that restrict airflow. It would have been much better to allow air to enter and exit through larger perforations, as the fan speed profile could be less aggressive, which would reduce noise. On the front of the device, next to the power switch and the power socket, there is a smaller switch for turning semi-passive operation on and off. It is always good to have the option to disable the fan stop function.
The box is medium-sized, as it only has to accommodate a power supply unit with a length of 160 mm. The protection inside the packaging is adequate, as the edges of the power supply are covered with sufficient. The scope of delivery itself does not hold any surprises.
On the back, we find a lot of connectors including the deliberate 12VHPWR connector that connects with a native cable. Speaking of cables, you get two EPS cables, four PCIe 6+2 pin cables with a total of eight connectors, three SATA cables with a total of 12 connectors, four 4-pin Molex cables, the 12VHPWR cable, and a matching power cable. So the number of cables you get with this power supply is really absolutely sufficient.
All cables are long enough and the distance between the peripheral ports is reasonable at 150 mm. The number of legacy PCIe ports is small, and the most important thing is that they are only installed on two cables. Nevertheless, the power supply is equipped with a 12+4-pin PCIe connector that can deliver up to 600W, so there is no need to use adapters to power NVIDIA’s RTX 4000 series graphics cards.
| Description | Cable Count | Connector Count (Total) | Gauge | In Cable Capacitors |

| 8 pin EPS12V (700mm) | 1 | 1 | 16AWG | No |
| 4+4 pin EPS12V (700mm) | 1 | 1 | 16AWG | No |
| 6+2 pin PCIe (500mm+150mm) | 2 | 4 | 16-18AWG | No |
| 12+4 pin PCIe (600mm) (600W) | 1 | 1 | 16-24AWG | No |
| SATA (500mm+150mm+150mm) | 3 | 12 | 18AWG | No |
| 4-pin Molex (500mm+150mm+150mm) | 1 | 4 | 18AWG | No |
| FDD Adapter (100mm) | 1 |
Protection circuits
It’s nice to see OCP set conservatively at 12V and OPP set conservatively as this is a powerful power supply. On the other hand, the side rails have high OCP trip points, especially the 3.3V, which are little used by modern systems.
| OCP (Cold @ 26°C) | 12V: 119A (119%), 11.898V 5V: 30.4A (138.18%), 4.999V 3.3V: 31.1A (141.36%), 3.273V 5VSB: 5.1A (170%), 4.963V |
| OCP (Hot @ 42°C) | 12V: 118.6A (118.6%), 11.939V 5V: 30.3A (137.73%), 4.997V 3.3V: 31A (140.91%), 3.272V 5VSB: 5A (166.67%), 4.971V |
| OPP (Cold @ 29°C) | 1407.18W (117.27%) |
| OPP (Hot @ 40°C) | 1407.21W (117.27%) |
| OTP | ✓ (151°C @ 12V Heat Sink) |
