Having a good power supply is perhaps the most important single component your system can have. It’s a sad fact, but when many people look towards system builds they can often overlook the significance a good PSU can have. Firstly, clearly, one that is well made will work well and generally be much more durable in the long term. Secondly, going for better efficiency ratings means that it’ll run better and might even save you some cash on the electric bill. It’s not much, but every little helps!

With this in mind, we take a look at the Thermaltake Smart BX1 RGB. This power supply is rated to 750w and comes with bronze efficiency certification. So far, all the things you’d want to hear from a power supply that suits a reasonable budget but still has plenty of performance to offer.

As this is a Thermaltake product, this power supply includes some impressive RGB lighting effects. This is particularly special as they are one of the few brands (at least that we are aware of) that incorporate RGB technology in their PSU designs.
