Power supply PSU THERMALTAKE Toughpower GT Snow 1000W ATX 24-pin, 80 PLUS Gold, white, 120mm fan

The Toughpower GT Snow series is a fully modular power supply designed to deliver 80 PLUS Gold efficiency and compatibility with ATX 3.1 standards. It features a native PCIe 12V-2x6 (12+4 pin) modular connector for stable power delivery to modern graphics cards, an ultra-quiet 120 mm hydraulic bearing fan with Smart Zero Fan control, a high-amperage single +12V rail, and fully modular low-profile flat black cables for easier cable management. The series includes industrial-grade protections and comes with a 5-year warranty.

Advantages

The PSU provides high efficiency (up to 90%) certified to 80 PLUS Gold, native support for PCIe Gen 5.1 devices via the 12+4 pin connector, and compliance with ATX 3.1 requirements including support for large power excursions and improved low-load efficiency. Low-profile modular cables reduce clutter and improve airflow while the Smart Zero Fan and hydraulic bearing minimize operating noise. Built-in protections (OCP, OVP, UVP, OPP, SCP, OTP) ensure hardware safety.

How to use

Install the Toughpower GT Snow into a compatible ATX chassis and connect the 24-pin ATX motherboard connector first. Attach the modular cables needed for CPU, GPU and drives, using the native PCIe 12+4 pin cable for next-generation graphics cards when required. Ensure the PSU input voltage matches local mains (100–240 V). When powered on, the Smart Zero Fan operates automatically to reduce noise at low loads; regular airflow and dust checks will help maintain cooling performance.

Recommendations

Use the included PCIe 12+4 pin cable for GPUs that specify a 12+4 connector and follow the graphics card vendor’s wattage guidelines. Verify system power requirements before selecting the 1000 W model to ensure adequate headroom for peak loads and future upgrades.
