ASUS ROG Strix 1000W Platinum Equalizer Cable Version (2026) power supply

SKU CH-TG02-YAYDM

A 1000W Platinum PSU with GaN transistors and Equalizer cables balancing load to 1224W while keeping connectors below 105°C

  • ROG Equalizer cables balance current to cut connector heat
  • GaN transistors lower losses for cooler 1000W delivery
  • GPU-FIRST sensing steadies voltage under 1224W peaks
  • ATX 3.1 and PCIe 5.1 ready for next-gen graphics
  • Cybenetics Lambda A+ rating keeps fan noise minimal

What it is and who it is for

The ASUS ROG Strix 1000W Platinum Equalizer Cable Version (2026) is a new fully modular power supply built for high-end desktop systems. It targets enthusiasts who need reliable 12 V delivery for modern graphics cards and CPUs. The unit uses gallium nitride transistors to improve efficiency and reduce heat under heavy loads.

The specification that decides fit

This unit is certified to the ATX 3.1 and PCIe 5.1 standards, so it natively supports the latest 12V-2x6 graphics connectors without adapters. Its 80PLUS Platinum rating guarantees at least 80 % efficiency at typical loads. The platform also carries Cybenetics Lambda A+ certification for low acoustic output.

Capacity and headroom

The supply delivers a continuous 1000 W and can sustain 1224 W in extreme conditions thanks to the Equalizer cables that balance current across four +12 V wires. Each wire handles up to 9.2 A, keeping connector temperatures below the 105 °C material limit even when a 600 W load is concentrated on two pins. Systems requiring more than 1224 W peak will exceed this unit's capability.

Questions about this item

What does the 1000 W rating mean once the unit is installed in a system?

The 1000 W rating is the continuous output the supply can deliver; the ROG Equalizer cables let it sustain up to 1224 W in extreme conditions, a 104 % increase over the reference specification, while keeping connector temperatures below 105 °C.

How do the ATX 3.1 and PCIe 5.1 standards affect what this PSU can actually power?

ATX 3.1 and PCIe 5.1 compliance mean the unit includes a native 12V-2x6 connector that can deliver up to 600 W to a Gen 5.1 graphics card without an adapter, and the Equalizer cables balance current across the four +12 V wires to stay within the 9.2 A per-pin limit.

What physical clearance and mounting points does this power supply need?

It follows the standard ATX form factor, so it fits any case with an ATX PSU bay and uses the usual four rear mounting screws; the fully modular design lets you attach only the cables you need, reducing clutter inside the chassis.
