[Thermaltake](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smart-bm3-bronze) announced its new GF3 power supplies collection of next-gen-ready PSUs (Power Supply Units). The GF3 power supplies boast [80 Plus Gold](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ge-series) certification for power delivery efficiency, combined with industry-leading capacities that are ready for the next generation of power-hungry CPUs, GPUs, and even SSDs.

The GF3 PSU collection comes in 750W, 850W, 1000W, 1200W, and 1650W capacities. These PSUs are outfitted with [modular cables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hx1200i), meaning builders can use only the required cables, reducing clutter and improving aesthetics, while incrementally improving airflow. On top of this, Thermaltake asserts that these PSUs have at least a 70% efficiency at 2% load, which will help consumers save on power bills.

The PSUs are available now from Ebuyer, as well as various other retailers, at prices that range from $80 USD to $380 USD, depending on the capacity.
