XPG's newly unveiled SFF-ready platform—carefully optimized for NVIDIA's omnipresent GeForce RTX 50-series—consists of several product ranges. Given the complicated nature of the manufacturer's various new item lineups, this article will concentrate on freshly unveiled power supplies units. At Computex 2025, ADATA's gaming division has keenly showed off its brand-new PYMCORE SFX PSU series. The company's ultra-compact designs are tailored for integration into VALOR AIR and MESH NANO cases—this synergistic combination is advertised as: "allowing longer GPUs to fit into SFF builds without compromising performance."
The XPG PYMCORE power supply series is fully up-to-date with modern standards—most notably, being ATX 3.1 and PCIe 5.1 compliant. A 1000 W Platinum 80+ certified flagship model offers 235% power excursion. 12V2x6 (600 W) connectors can be linked to compatible SFF-ready enthusiast-grade NVIDIA GeForce graphics cards (and a smattering of custom Radeon RX 9070 Series models). A flagship PYMCORE unit was closely inspected by a TechPowerUp staff member; they took note of three 12V2x6 outputs. One exhibited specimen was deemed very special; due to having been blessed by Jensen Huang's signature. In addition, XPG is readying 850 W and 750 W Gold-rated PYMCORE SKUs. All models are configured with 100% Japanese capacitors.
The PYMCORE Platinum (1000 W) and Gold (850 W & 750 W) product tiers seem to bear almost identical specifications. A much larger format sibling was sat close by; XPG's FUSION platform is already a known quantity. A Platinum-certified 1600 W model was presented during CES 2023. At this year's mid-year trade event, ADATA's gaming branch has showcased an updated version—compliant with modern standards. This beefy offering leverages two 12V2x6 (600 W) connectors. XPG's placard boasts about this design being bolstered by eight levels of industrial protection. An advertised 12-year long warranty reflects this level of confidence.
KYBER II Gold and PYLON II Bronze models are also promoted as modernized products.
XPG's dinky EDGECORE Bronze PSU product line complies with Intel's TFX PSDG standard.
According to an accompanying placard, the Taiwanese hardware manufacturer has 500 W, 400 W, and 300 W models in the pipeline.
