SHERIDAN, WYOMING – October 30, 2024 – ASUS Republic of Gamers (ROG) has announced the availability of the ROG Thor 1600T, the world’s first ATX 3.0 power supply with a 16-pin PCIe® connector capable of delivering up to 600 watts of power directly to next-generation graphics cards. Also announced are the ROG Thor 1200P2 and 1000P2, two 80 PLUS® Platinum power supplies that complete the new Thor III generation.

“Since its debut in 2018, the ROG Thor power supply series has redefined the meaning of premium power for PC enthusiasts, gamers, and overclockers,” said Joseph Hsu, Country Head of ASUS Philippines. “Today, we are proud to introduce the third generation of ROG Thor power supplies, which continue to raise the bar for PC power with advanced cooling, innovative features, and exceptional reliability.”

Next-Gen Power

The ROG Thor 1600T is the world’s first power supply with a 16-pin PCIe connector capable of feeding up to 600 W of power directly to next-generation graphics cards. This new connector, part of the just-released ATX 3.0 specification, is smaller than its 12-pin predecessor and delivers more power for the most demanding graphics cards.

The ROG Thor 1600T is also compatible with current graphics cards using a bundled 16-pin to dual 8-pin adapter cable.

Massive Heatsinks for Massive Power

The ROG Thor 1600T is equipped with massive heatsinks that offer 2X more surface area than previous-generation designs. This results in significantly lower temperatures, enabling the ROG Thor 1600T to deliver 1600 W of continuous power and allowing it to be pushed to the absolute limit for short periods.

Ultra-Quiet Operation

The ROG Thor 1600T features a 135 mm Axial-tech fan that provides higher airflow at lower noise levels than traditional designs. The 0dB Technology allows the fan to completely stop when the system is idling or operating under lighter loads, resulting in silent operation.

Exceptional Reliability

The ROG Thor 1600T is built with high-quality components, including Japanese capacitors, and is backed by a 10-year warranty. It is also 80 PLUS Titanium certified, ensuring exceptional energy efficiency.

Real-Time Power Monitoring

The ROG Thor 1600T features an OLED Power Display that shows real-time power consumption. This allows users to easily monitor their system's power usage and ensure that they are not overloading the power supply.

Fully Modular Cables

The ROG Thor 1600T comes with fully modular cables, making it easy to manage and route cables for a clean and tidy build.

The ROG Thor 1200P2 and 1000P2

The ROG Thor 1200P2 and 1000P2 are two 80 PLUS Platinum power supplies that offer exceptional performance and reliability. They feature massive heatsinks, Axial-tech fans, 0dB Technology, and fully modular cables. They are also backed by a 10-year warranty.

Availability and Pricing
