OCP is highly set at 12V in cold conditions, dropping at around 140% at high temperatures. Given the 750W max power, I agree with this setting, so that I won’t mark it as negative. OPP is also close to 150% at low temperatures but drops notably at high temperatures, effectively protecting the PSU. The 5V rail has its OCP triggering point logically set, but this is not the case for the 3.3V rail, which exceeds 30A without triggering!
OTP triggers at a relatively low temperature on the 12V heatsink, but this makes perfect sense since the latter doesn’t directly contact the 12V FETs. Lastly, all other essential protection features are present.

Hi what would be the difference between the GF3 and GF A3 lineups? Thanks!
Different OEM, the GF3 (up to 1200W) is by CWT, the GF A3 by HKC.
