Lazrmilo, for me I do the G power chord with the 3 fingers as you described above but when I get to the higher frets (such as the 10th or 12th fret), the frets are much smaller and I play the power chord using in index finger on the low E string and the ring finger across the A and D strings. Either are acceptable. Can't remember if I heard that in one of the lessons or whether I read it somewhere in the forum.
