Compatibility & safe installation

  • Confirm the 100 mm SFX length and ATX bracket mounting in the target chassis; check ventilation and modular plug bend clearance.
  • Assess GPU requirements against the two PCIe 6+2-pin ends, 450 W total and 37.5 A +12 V rail. Do not infer support for a GPU requiring more or different connections.
  • Use the correct regional mains lead and exact cable set. Similar Thermaltake modular plugs do not prove cable interchangeability.
  • Never open, probe or repair the PSU.
