ASUS ROG Thor 1000W Platinum III (ATX 3.1, OLED)
A 1000W 80 Plus Platinum, fully modular ATX 3.1 supply with a 12V-2x6 (12VHPWR) connector and ASUS's signature OLED wattage display. The headline is presentation as much as power: it's aimed at showcase ROG-aesthetic builds and single-GPU RTX 50 Series rigs. The OLED flourish carries a premium, so it's for enthusiasts who value the look rather than buyers chasing pure efficiency-per-dollar.

Verdict
Best for
- showcase ROG aesthetic builds
- RTX 50 Series single-GPU rigs
- OLED wattage-display enthusiasts
Who should skip this
- Value builders — much of the price is the OLED display and ROG aesthetic, not extra electrical headroom over a plain Platinum 1000W
- Stealth/clean builds where the PSU sits in a covered shroud — you pay for a wattage display you'll never see
- Sub-RTX-5080 single-GPU rigs — 1000W is more capacity than these systems will ever pull
