Thermaltake Toughpower GF A3 1050W 80+ Gold PCIe Gen5 ATX 3.0 Fully Modular PSU

Toughpower GF A3 Series

The Toughpower GF A3 series is 80 PLUS Gold certified and compatible with Intel’s ATX 3.0 specifications. Designed with a native PCIe Gen 5.0 connector, it can power up next-gen technology with one new 12VHPWR cable.

The wattage marked on the 12VHPWR’s connector is the recommended wattage (Ref. Intel design guideline). The native 16 PIN (12VHPWR) PCIe connector of the GF A3 1050W can deliver up to 600W for PCIe 5.0 graphics cards.

Power Up the Next Generation Hardware

To fully support next-gen hardware, the Toughpower GF A3 Gold Series (650W/750W/850W/1050W/1200W) is designed to meet ATX 3.0 standards, including a PCIe Gen 5.0 12VHPWR connector. The GF A3 Gold series delivers 80 PLUS Gold efficiency and also offers stability, durability, and reliability.

Fully Compatible with Intel ATX 3.0 Standards

The Toughpower GF A3 Gold series is fully compatible with Intel ATX 3.0 specifications, which supports up to 200% power excursion, reaches 60% low load efficiency, and complies with required power supply timing standards.

PCIe Gen 5.0 Ready

The Toughpower GF A3 Gold series comes with a 16-pin connector to offer powerful and stable performance, allowing the PSU to natively run next-generation GPUs.

The wattage marked on the 12VHPWR’s connector is the recommended wattage (Ref. Intel design guideline). The native 16 PIN (12VHPWR) PCIe connector of the GF A3 1050W can deliver up to 600W for PCIe 5.0 graphics cards.

Made to Comply with the Latest Graphics Cards

As the power consumption of graphics cards increases, so has their demand for power. The GF A3 series is designed to support NVIDIA and AMD graphics cards and is ready to supply the graphics cards according to their different connections.

Be Smart, Stay Quiet

Featuring a 120mm fluid bearing fan to deliver excellent airflow. Furthermore, the Smart Zero Fan will not spin until the load exceeds 30% of the power supply, minimizing undesired noise.

High-Quality Japanese Main Electrolytic Capacitor

A high-quality Japanese main electrolytic capacitor greatly improves the power supply’s durability and ensures the Toughpower GF A3 series' stability and reliability.

High Amperage Single +12V Rail & High-Class Technologies

A powerful single +12V rail can properly deliver the power needed for the best compatibility. The use of LLC and DC to DC circuit design provides very stable operation and enhanced voltage regulation.

Built-in Industrial Grade Protection

To protect the hardware, the GF A3 is built with industry-grade protections:

• OCP (Over Current Protection)
• OVP (Over Voltage Protection)
• UVP (Under Voltage Protection)
• OPP (Over Power Protection)
• SCP (Short Circuit Protection)
• OTP (Over Temperature Protection)

Fully Modular Low-Profile Flat Cables

Offers cable selection for users while powering the system at an advantageous voltage. Low-profile black cables make cable management easier, reduce clutter, and increase airflow inside the chassis.

80 PLUS Gold Certified and Lake C6/C7 States Ready

The Toughpower GF A3 Gold series saves energy through its high energy efficiency of up to 90% and is certified to 80 PLUS® Gold. It has been optimized to work with all generations of Intel processors to achieve maximum energy savings.

Cybenetics – Efficiency Level Certification – Platinum

The Toughpower GF A3 1050W is certified to CYBENETICS PLATINUM in 115V and 230V input in terms of efficiency level. The overall efficiency rating is defined as ≥89% to ＜91% for 115V and 230V input. There are six ETA certifications, covering an efficiency range from 82%. Besides the overall efficiency of a PSU, ETA also takes into account its overall Power Factor readings along with the efficiency of the 5VSB rail and the power that the unit consumes in standby (also called phantom power).

Cybenetics – Noise Level Certification – A- & A

The Toughpower GF A3 1050W is certified to CYBENETICS A- in 115V and A in 230V in terms of noise level. There are seven noise level certifications, covering from dead silent PSUs (＜15dB[A]) to quite noisy ones (>40dB[A]). We use a solid methodology and state-of-the-art equipment to measure the noise that a PSU outputs throughout its entire operation range, from almost zero noise output to full load.
