Thermalright Brings a Wealth of New Cases, 3000 W PSUs, and Coolers to Computex 2025

[btarunr]

The Thermalright brand is synonymous with tower-type CPU coolers, but they've branched out significantly into other allied product lines, including cases and power supplies over the years. The company brought a wealth of its latest innovations to Computex 2025. We were drawn into the booth with a unique open-frame, liquid-cooled mini PC powered by an AMD Ryzen 7 8845HS MoD (mobile on desktop) platform. This machine is slightly smaller than a game console, but has a fully fledged liquid cooling loop cooling the SoC, while additional heatsinks cover the M.2 NVMe SSDs. There's even small square color display to put out real time system monitoring stats.

While this mini PC is in the shape of an open-air frame, the company also showed us a closed, cuboidal, liquid cooled mini PC, which comes with a handle, and a neatly executed RGB diffuser along the base. Much like its open-air sibling, it has a square true-color display. This one is powered by the Ryzen 7 7840HS. Both these chips are older generation, but Thermalright intends to showcase the capability of its mini PC cases.



Moving on to more conventional form-factors, we have the Thermalright TR M10, a high-end microATX tower case, with a 2-sided glasshouse, a horizontally partitioned layout, and plenty of ARGB lighting, in the form of lighting strips on the top and base flanking the glasshouse, a multicolor segment display on the front-panel, and a true-color ultrawide display along the forward-left corner, just below the front-panel ports of two USB 3.x type-A, one type-C, and headset jack. The case supports up to ten 120 mm fans. The CPU cooler in the example build of the TR M10 is the Rainbow Vision AIO CLC, a premium CPU cooler that features a large AMOLED display with 2K @ 60 Hz resolution. There's even an empty, black variant of this case that was on display.



Next up, Thermalright showed us their Wonder Vision line of AIO CLCs, which come in multiple variants based on pump-block size, and the shape of their displays, ranging from square, to slightly rectangular, ultrawide, and ultrawide that curves along to the side. Common to all these, is a pump-block that features a 40 mm fan to actively cool the CPU VRM, and radiators with high static pressure fans. The Thermalright Aqua Elite V6 is the company's new mainstream AIO CLC line, which comes with a sporty puck-shaped pump-block that has some ARGB lighting. For the workstation crowd, Thermalright showed off a unique high-end CLC with two pump-blocks supporting sTR4 and LGA4266, and a thick radiator.



Thermalright also shows us their upcoming premium air coolers, the first one is a dual fin-stack with two included fans in push-pull configuration, and a top-plate that has a segment display; while the other is a C-type top-flow cooler featuring a thick aluminium fin-stack heatsink with a 15 mm-thick 120 mm fan on top. Other interesting bits from Thermalright's cooling department include a fan with a round color display located in the fan hub, a dual fin-stack cooler top-plate with multicolor segment display, and a memory area cooler that directs air onto memory modules using a set of 30 mm fans, and has a segment display to display temperature with.



We now move on to power, where Thermalright showed us a Goliath high-end PSU with 3000 W capacity achieved over a multi +12 V rail configuration, and 80 Plus Platinum switching efficiency. This PSU puts out four native 600 W 12V-2x6 power connectors, and has been stress-tested to handle four RTX 5090 graphics cards at peak load. While there are four 12V-2x6 connectors on the PSU's backplane, up to two additional 12V-2x6 connectors are possible by combining sets of two 8-pin outputs.



Next up, is the Thermalright TR-AT1650, we were shown both the black and white variants of this PSU. This is a 1650 W PSU with 80 Plus Titanium switching efficiency and two 12V-2x6 power outputs. Up next, is the Thermalright TPFX1000, a high-end SFX form-factor power supply with 1000 W output, and 80 Plus Platinum efficiency, which puts out a single 12V-2x6, and has abundant power for a build with even a high-end RTX 5090 graphics card.



Wrapping things up at the Thermalright booth, we run into many of the company's unique case-mods based on its open-air chassis. The most striking of these is shaped like a futuristic railgun battle tank.

Is that a Mammoth Tank from Command & Conquer 3?

 

[Kwadratowicz]

I love this sandwicz mini pc
@ymdhis It looks like one good find
But it could be bad if they add ai to this tank

 

[Chrispy_]

I wondered when Thermalright were going to move into the PC case market.

Most of the other cooler manufacturers have already done so, presumably because the materials logistics, factory hardware, and general metalwork expertise required have a lot in common with heatsink production.

 

[Red Hood]

Is that a Mammoth Tank from Command & Conquer 3?

With the railgun upgrade from the tech center

 

[Caring1]

$100,000 for the one of Tank.

 

[Chomiq]

That red open air case is just a concept but they also plan to fight minisforum in the mini pc segment by offering their own pc's with integrated water cooling.

 

[ymdhis]

On second thought it can't be the Mammoth since neither of those had that front profile, and it's lacking the missile pods too. It looks closer to the MARV (Mammoth Armored Reclamation Vehicle) which had a similar front profile and thread size, but that one uses a single, rotating triple barrel cannon.

It doesn't look like any tank I've seen in RTS games. Maybe it's an original design, but this is Thermalright, so it oughta have been stolen from somewhere.

I’m surprised there is such a market for PSU over 2400w. I doubt many people, except extreme OC people have a 15amp, 240v socket for these PSU.

That might be the case in America, but not in countries where 240V is the standard.

 

[Mrgravia]

The red Mini PC may be a concept, but it's something that really, really needs to be made. First Mini PC design that's ever made me stop and take notice.

Also note they finally revised their highly popular low profile cooler. New mounting system, new fan.

Now, if only someone would make it over to scythes booth sometime.

 

[kikimaru024]

@btarunr
Minor correction, that C-type cooler has to be using a 92x15mm fan.

 

[Prima.Vera]

3KW PSU ??

 

[Canned Noodles]

The red mini pc looks so good. I hope it comes to market.

 

[PixelTech]

Thermalright PSU... this is their first PSU right? I don't know if they have good QC or all claimed protections would actually be in their PSUs. Otherwise, they have a good reputation for cooling products. Likely no warranty help for NA customers.

 

[bonehead123]

Yea a cool concept for sure, HOWEVER:

A) Need more color choices, as the old ROG'r red & black thing is soooo 2012-ish

B) The lower USB port is oriented the wrong way for using those angled cables, since it essentially blocks the one above it , but perhaps just use a different one....

They have an existing line of PSU in asia that came out last year. It's not fantastic, but they were pretty good, and rather affordable.

Great to see Thermalright has finally got courage to enter the areas other than coolers. Like it was already mentioned, many rivals have already entered. And TR not only entered, the've seems to got prepared to challange.
Particularly that red chassis with Weaver rail system looks intersting. Seems like solid concept (no pun intended).
The tank-chassis seems to be built very well. But it's more of the PC case concept art trend of late 2000- early 2010th. The opan air chassis look good too, especially as a test bench.
The fish-tank/aquarium cases look kinda very generic, and are pretty meh. Mostly do to being just another useless trend in PC case industry, with enormous RGB bloat, suffocating glass, low amount of point of stability.

P.S.: those fans seems to have pretty small gap between the impeller and the frame.

On second thought it can't be the Mammoth since neither of those had that front profile, and it's lacking the missile pods too. It looks closer to the MARV (Mammoth Armored Reclamation Vehicle) which had a similar front profile and thread size, but that one uses a single, rotating triple barrel cannon.

Yes, this indeed looks like none of the RTS/Video game tanks. Though is very similar to that Twin Railgun Mamonth Tank from C&C, but also does so only conceptually. But at the same time, it's also more like mix between Mamoth tank, and MARV. Or as a Morrigu tank from Battletech.

...but this is Thermalright, so it oughta have been stolen from somewhere.

It seems you've got confused it with Thermaltake. Thermalright seems to be always makeing own exclusive design, often superrior to many rivals in cooling industry.

 

[LabRat 891]

If their PSUs end up being decent, I'll probably have an all Thermalright build, by the end of the year
I already trust their air coolers, 'been wanting to try their AIOs, and their cases look priced well-enough to 'impulse buy' whatever I think looks nicest.

3KW PSU ??

A. 4x 5090s needs 2.4KW+, on their own.
B. for people w/ compulsions for 'the biggest and baddest' (ie, more money than brains)
C. for people making money with their build. Professionals and Entrepreneurs.

I’m surprised there is such a market for PSU over 2400w.

Anyone with/making money and into AI/MI, would have need or want for such.

NtM, Multi-GPU is alive and well, for AI/MI applications

I doubt many people, except extreme OC people have a 15amp, 240v socket for these PSU.

If one lives in the US or Canada and have resistive heating in a room/office w/ a thermostat, they likely already have a 20A 240V branch ran into an easily-accessible outlet box. Merely, yank the thermostat, replace w/ a NEMA 250V receptacle, and you've got 240VAC 60hz power for your HomeLab.
Some homes, already have a 240VAC 'in-wall heat pump' outlet, too. The last place I saw w/ one, had replaced the 240V heat pump w/ a 125V A/C-only. So, the 250V outlet was already open and unused.

If one isn't comfortable and experienced doing it themselves, DON'T.
Assuming the electrician doesn't look at you like you've got three heads, it should be an affordable few-minutes job, with less than $30 in materials for the outlet and coverplate.

 

[BlueBee]

The 12v-2x6 connectors on the 3kw seem to be labelled incorrectly!

 

[Random_User]

What's also interesting, which OEM do they utilize for these PSUs ?! It doesn't say much, as the eventual execution matters the most. But still...

Spoiler

I already trust their air coolers, 'been wanting to try their AIOs, and their cases look priced well-enough to 'impulse buy' whatever I think looks nicest.

Nice to see the trust in their coolers. But is it really proven (for the late/comeback) products? I mean, how reliable their cooling pipes are. The pre-"return" coolers were top-notch, and exceptionally reliable. But how much this applies to their modern coolers?

Has someone tested those, like Phantom Spirit 120, Peerless Assassin, etc, after several years of throughout, daily use? How much, and how fast the pipes and the capillar tubes/wick degrade? This is what interests me much.

And if only TR would have supplied their coolers with the backwards compatible mounting plates, that any other cooler maker does provide without any issue. This is the biggest issue with "modern" TR coolers, as the incompatipability with the older AMD sockets is a deal braker. It's even bigger issue, than absence of the official distribution and supply.

 

[LabRat 891]

Not the first time Thermalright's printing on their pre-production products had errors.
[I can't find my comment from one of the previous years' computex. But IIRC, they had their own logo misprinted on their 'new' AIO]

I've owned 2 or 3 of their coolers since their 'return'. Longest-used one is the PS120EVO, at about a year on/off use.
I'm not especially concerned about longevity of hermetically-sealed heatpipes.

You do have a point in asking the question, though.
Off the top of my head, I could see a heatpipe 'popping' in long term storage, from some freakish microbial or chemical degradation.

I too wish that they'd include older sockets' mountings. I'd love to upgrade the cooling on a lot of 'legacy' builds, cheap.
But... the most-affordable way for TR to do that, is adopting a less-secure clip-on mechanism. I prefer a bolt-down cooler, esp. for heavy tower coolers.

 

[Prima.Vera]

A. 4x 5090s needs 2.4KW+, on their own.

Got it, but then again you need a server motherboard (No ATX motherboard supports 4x5090 cards) . Therefore a server type enclosure is required. Then dual server PSUs, which are not compatible with an ATX PSU such as this....

 

[darakian]

I really hope they do a spin of the exoskeleton one with the max chip.

 

[CapNemo72]

It is not shown here, but TT also showed a Strix Halo mini PC with AIO water cooling.
Looks great and if the price will really be 1999USD (that is what they said) for AMD AI 395 Max APU with 128GB ram and 2Tb SSD, I am buying it.
