Topower intros the Tiger 1200W modular power supply
Continuing to pump watts in those precious boxes we spend more and more time around, Taiwan-based Topower has now rolled out the Tiger 1200W power supply. Ready to take on the craziest multi-GPU setups, the new modular unit has a titanium mirror finish, an efficiency of over 80%, cables featuring a REMI cable coating that keeps EMI interference from other hardware components, and Nvidia SLI certification.
"The beauty of this power supply is that itأ¢آ€آ™s performs way beyond that specified standard and has a rating that out powers most power supplies in its class," said Mario Gastelum, Product Marketing, Topower Computer Industrial Co. "We designed and utilized REMI technology to effectively maximize the electrical output to effectively harness the complete power of 1200 Watts. In addition, we developed PNT (Plug-N-Twist) Technology to deliver an easy to manage cable system that won't clutter your PC's interior."
The Tiger 1200W power supply is cooled off by a 120mm thermally-control fan, it boasts six 12V (20A) rails which can be combined into one rail via a switch to provide even greater stability, and is now shipping with a price tag of around $200.
