Be quiet! the market leader in PC power supplies in Germany and is extending for the Dark Power Pro 11 series. New models with 550, 650 and 750 Watt capacity will tally to the 850, 1000 and 1200 Watt power supplies that were introduced in May. With their 80 PLUS Platinum certification and a slew of noise optimizations, these are the manufacturer’s most efficient and silent models.
These alternatives for less demanding high-end systems offer a well-known feature set. These include modular cable management, fan controlled by a temperature sensor, and the Overclocking key. The latter allows the merger of four separate 12V rails to switch from multi-rail operation to single-rail, delivering maximum performance under high loads.
With the help of optimized “Half Bridge + LLC + SR + DC/DC” topology, the Dark Power Pro 11 power supplies with 550, 650, and 750 Watt have extremely high efficiency, up to 94% (80 PLUS Platinum certification) The power supply is utilizing a SilentWings 3 in 135-milimeter format, for near-silent operation. The power supply offers 6-pole motor and airflow-optimized fan blades with “Fluid Dynamic Bearing ” with low startup speed of 220 rotations per minute and the funnel shaped air intake have been adopted as well.
The manufacturer provides consistently implemented aluminium solid capacitors to ensure high durability and reliability. All capacitors are specified for 105 degrees celsius and have an output noise generated by load changes is prevented by using high-quality components. The sophisticated board layout with six daughter boards leads to the shorter interconnects and enables good heat dissipation.
The new model versions in the Dark Power Pro 11 series are available in shops as of today for a price of USD149 (approx. RM 650)-(550 Watt), USD 164 (approx. RM 710)-(650 Watt) and USD 179 (approx. RM 770)-(750 Watt).
