ASRock has showcased a slew of PSUs during CES 2025 featuring the latest standards and connectivity. The brand plans at least four series, covering different power needs and size constraints.
The brand showcased the Taichi, Phantom Gaming, Steel Legend, and Challenger PSU series, designed for next-gen GPUs and covering all budgets. Compliant with the ATX 3.1 and PCIe 5.1 standards, the lineup includes capacities ranging from 650W up to 1,650W, enough to power even Nvidia’s latest RTX 5090 beast or an AI machine.
All include at least one 12V-2×6 power connector capable of delivering up to 600W, with dual-colour cables to indicate proper and secure installation. Built to last, these PSUs use 100% Japanese capacitors, Infineon CoolMOS, and SiC SBD, cooled by 135mm FDB fans that stop under low load for silent operation. Better yet, they all come backed by a ten-year warranty, showing the brand’s confidence in their quality.
Taichi
Taichi is ASRock’s high-end series, boasting 80 Plus Titanium and Cybenetics Titanium efficiency certifications alongside Cybenetics A+ acoustic rating. It also offers the highest capacities of the entire lineup with 1,650W and 1,300W models. With such power at their disposal, Taichi PSUs come equipped with two 12V-2×6 power connectors, ready for the hungriest of GPUs and AI PCs.
Phantom Gaming
Phantom Gaming series sits just below Taichi, offering 1,600W, 1,300W, 1,000W, 850W, and 750W variants. Depending on the capacity, you will find one or two 12V-2×6 power connectors, alongside the usual assortment of eight-pins and SATA/Molex cables. This series carries 80 Plus Gold, Cybenetics Platinium, and Cybenetics A certifications.
Steel Legend
Steel Legend is the only series available in black or white, with a choice between 1,000W, 850W, 750W, and 650W capacities. Like the Phantom Gaming, we find 80 Plus Gold and Cybenetics Platinium efficiency certifications, but this time alongside Cybenetics A+ acoustic rating.
Challenger
Lastly, the Challenger series covers the entry range with two variants of each model, rocking either an 80 Plus Gold or 80 Plus Bronze certification plus a non-module cable design. That said, the latest 12V-2×6 power connector is still present making it an ideal choice for those planning to get a mid-range RTX 5070 card. The Gold models will be available in 850W, 750W, and 650W, with the Bronze versions delivering 750W, 650W, and 550W.
