Manuals of product Smart DPS G
Editorial note
The Thermaltake Smart DPS G is a power supply that stands out for its high energy efficiency thanks to its 80 PLUS Bronze certification, thus reducing energy consumption and associated costs. With a total power of 500 W and a peak power of 600 W, it offers optimal performance for the majority of computer systems, although this may prove insufficient for configurations requiring a more powerful supply. Its semi-modular design facilitates installation and improves cable management, contributing to better airflow. However, it is important to manage unused cables properly to avoid clutter that could detract from the aesthetics of the case. In terms of robustness, the Smart DPS G withstands temperatures ranging from 0 to 40 °C, ensuring its reliability in various environments. Nevertheless, the 120 mm fan, while sufficient for basic airflow, may not be optimal in very hot environments or for systems with many power-hungry components. The efficiency of 86% is acceptable, but it does not meet the latest standards, where more efficient power supplies, such as those with 80 PLUS Gold or Platinum certification, are available on the market. Additionally, the hold-up time of 10 ms may be insufficient for users seeking optimal performance during power outages, especially for sensitive applications. In summary, the Thermaltake Smart DPS G is a good option for users looking for an efficient and reliable power supply, but it may have limitations for high-performance configurations or in extreme conditions.Score details
