Back in 2020, Intel made waves in the tech industry by introducing the ATX12VO (ATX 12 Volt Only) standard. This move was primarily aimed at streamlining power supply design and boosting energy efficiency. Fast forward to 2022, and the ATX12VO V2 standard hit the scene, offering further enhancements in energy efficiency, especially in the realm of standby power consumption.

Now, the latest buzz comes from a post by X platform user @momomo_us, revealing that Intel is on the verge of launching the ATX12VO V3 version. This new iteration promises to deliver even more significant improvements in energy efficiency. While Intel has remained tight-lipped about the exact release date for this standard update, the timing of the leak—just ahead of Computex Taipei—has sparked speculation within the industry. Many believe that the ATX12VO V3 standard could make its grand debut during Computex Taipei 2026.
