Thermaltake is a name that many of us have heard of before; they’re a big player in the PC hardware market and parent company to some other great names such as tt eSPORTS and Luxa2. They manufacture everything from power supplies and cases to coolers and storage solutions.
The Smart RGB series of power supplies is the latest addition to their line-up. It comes with a 120mm RGB fan that is designed to be quiet and efficient, yet still look nice in your build. The RGB lighting on the fan is controlled by a dedicated button which allows you to change between different colors and settings, or you can set it to a constant glow, whichever is your preference.
Another great touch is that the key operating specifications are printed on the front of the PSU, which is always a good thing to see. It is also worth noting that, unlike some other non-modular power supplies on the market, the cables are elongated which makes it easier to route them out of the way in your case for a cleaner looking build and improved airflow.
The SMART RGB is an excellent choice for anyone who wants a powerful, quiet, RGB capable power supply that has 80 PLUS certification and is backed by a 5-YEAR warranty. It isn’t the cheapest out there, but when you factor in the performance and features on offer it’s not unreasonable. With an RRP of PS50 here in the UK, it’s a very solid option for any gaming builds.
