GAMEMAX, a rising innovator in PC gaming hardware, today announced the MAX PB-Series 80 PLUS Bronze Power Supply, a new lineup designed to deliver stable, efficient, and reliable power for modern gaming systems.

Engineered to meet the demands of today’s hardware, the GAMEMAX MAX PB Series is fully compliant with the latest Intel ATX 3.1 specification, supporting high transient power loads from next-generation GPUs while maintaining consistent performance. Built with premium internal components and a robust power design, the MAX PB Series is positioned as a dependable and cost-effective solution for entry-level and mainstream PC builders.

True Intel ATX 3.1 Compliance

Fully compliant with Intel ATX 3.1 standards, the MAX PB Series is designed to handle modern hardware demands with ease. It supports up to 200% system power excursions and 300% GPU transient loads, ensuring stable operation with next-generation graphics cards.

Native 12V-2×6 Connectors

Select models in the GAMEMAX MAX PB Series, including the 750W and 850W variants, are equipped with native 12V-2×6 connectors for next-generation GPU compatibility. This direct connection ensures stable and efficient power delivery for the latest NVIDIA RTX graphics cards, eliminating the need for adapters and simplifying cable management.

100% All-Japanese Capacitors

Built exclusively with premium Japanese capacitors sourced from Rubycon, Nippon-Chemicon, and Nichicon, the MAX PB-Series delivers superior reliability and durability. These high-quality components help maintain electrical stability and extend the lifespan of the power supply.

Pure Copper Cable Design

The MAX PB-Series features 100% pure copper output cables, enhancing conductivity and reducing power loss. This ensures stable and efficient power delivery, even under sustained high-load conditions.

Best-in-Class Long-Life Fan

Equipped with a silent hydraulic bearing cooling fan with smart temperature control, the MAX PB-Series is rated for 40,000 hours MTBF at 40 °C. It provides reliable thermal performance while maintaining low noise levels during extended operation.

Certified Safety & Efficiency

The MAX PB-Series meets genuine 3C safety certification standards including 8 protection features including OPP, UVP, OTP, OCP, SCP, NLP, and SIP, implemented via a 16-pin protection IC.

GAMEMAX PB Series Warranty, Availability, and Pricing

The GAMEMAX PB Series PSUs are backed with a 3-year warranty. See pricing below.

MAX P550B: $46.99

MAX P650B: $49.99

MAX P750B: $59.99

MAX P850B: $64.99

A good power supply is the heart of any PC. Typically for a budget build, you will want one with at least an 80Plus Bronze efficiency rating. GameMax is introducing its latest line of affordable bronze-rated PSUs this week, which are fully compliant with the ATX 3.1 specification.

While cheap with prices starting at just $49.99, these PSUs are not modular, so you will have to deal with hiding away some extra or unnecessary cables. If you are running a current-gen RTX graphics card, then you'll also want to opt for a 750W or 850W model, as these are the only ones featuring native 12V‑2×6 connectors. Internally, all of the new MAX PB PSUs use 100% Japanese capacitors from Rubycon, Nippon‑Chemicon and Nichicon, alongside pure copper output cables to improve conductivity and reduce power loss under sustained load.

Cooling is handled by a hydraulic‑bearing fan rated for 40,000 hours at 40°C, with smart temperature control to keep noise levels low. The MAX PB PSUs also include eight hardware protection features, including over‑power protection, under‑voltage protection, over‑temperature protection, over‑current protection, short‑circuit protection, no‑load protection, surge and inrush protection, and over‑voltage protection.

The GAMEMAX MAX PB‑Series will be available soon, with prices starting at $46.99 for the 550W model, rising to $49.99 for the 650W, $59.99 for the 750W, and $64.99 for the 850W. All models are backed by a 3-year warranty.

Thermaltake is launching a new programme here in the UK – TT PowerCare. Through this new initiative, ThermalTake power supply buyers in the UK will be well looked after should something ever go wrong, thanks to a swift PSU replacement service to get your system back up and running.

Starting from the 1st of March 2026, TT PowerCare will be introduced across Thermaltake’s PSU range, on top of the existing extended warranty. Under this new service, if a power supply unit is verified as faulty, Thermaltake UK will arrange a replacement within 48 working hours. On top of that, end users will no longer be required to return the faulty PSU, eliminating unnecessary downtime and logistical delays.

Speaking on the TT PowerCare programme, Thermaltake UK said: “At Thermaltake, we believe warranty support should be fast, simple, and customer-centric. With TT PowerCare, we are significantly reducing resolution time and removing friction from the RMA process, delivering peace of mind that truly matches the quality of our power supplies.”

In order to be eligible for the TT PowerCare programme, you will have to buy your TT PSU from a participating retailer. At launch, participating retailers include SCAN, AWD-IT and Falcon Computers. Additional partners may be added to the list in the future.

KitGuru Says: We don't see many initiatives like this across the UK so it is nice to see Thermaltake stepping up here. Do you think more brands should offer replacement services like this?
