DARK POWER PRO 10 | 1200W
Model BN205
Legendary Silence, Cutting Edge Performance
Dark Power Pro supplies are already renowned as the world’s quietest PSUs in the high performance category. The Dark Power Pro 10 1200W model takes that a giant step further with an all-new design topology that delivers 80PLUS Gold performance, the world’s highest energy efficiency certification. Add to that an unparalleled array of enhancements that augment this unit’s compatibility, convenience of use, reliability, and safety, and the result is simply a power supply without equal. Simply put, this is the highest-powered, most technologically-advanced power supply be quiet! has ever built.
- Virtually silent operation achieved through a broad array of meticulous optimizations, including use of be quiet!’s custom-designed 135mm SilentWings® fan
- SilentWings fan features airflow-optimized fan blades, fluid dynamic bearing with copper core and high quality IC motor controller for the quietest possible operation
- 80PLUS Gold certification and up to 93% power conversion efficiency let you do more work with the same power and reduce your power bills
- 1200 Watts of continuous power provide deep power reserves for demanding computing applications
- NVidia SLI and AMD CrossfireX multi-GPU certifications allow you to build intense Quad-GPU systems with utter confidence
- Cable management with extra long cable reach simplifies component installation and reduces annoying clutter, increasing airflow and improving cooling in even the largest PC cases
- Overclocking key allows switchover between quadruple independent +12V rail mode and high-performance single-rail operation
- German product conception, design and quality control
Applications
- High resolution gaming and multimedia systems
- Overclocked systems
- Quad-GPU workstations for 3D graphics, photo editing, video editing
- Multi-CPU based server systems
- Any application that requires high power with superior quiet, such as audio editing, studio work - or simply a gaming and multimedia system in your living room
Feature Details
Virtually Silent Operation
- Installed 135mm SilentWings® fan includes a wide array of electronic and mechanical optimizations for best-of-class air flow with very low noise production
- unique airflow-optimized fan blade design reduces noise-generating fan turbulence
- advanced fluid dynamic bearing with copper core provides for greatly reduced operating noise and super-long life
- high quality IC motor controller reduces electrical noise
- SilentWings fan is decoupled from the PSU body with special mounts, reducing transmission of vibration and noise
- Dual-layer PSU housing with rubberized sleeve isolates your chassis from PSU noise and vibration, further enhancing silence
- Optimized PSU airflow generates superior cooling at lower fan speeds, reducing turbulence and allowing even quieter operation
- Variable fan speed is optimally governed to strike the best balance between proper cooling and deep quiet
- Up to four case fans can also be connected to and regulated by the Dark Power Pro 10 1200W PSU, reducing overall system noise even further
Engineering
- All-new power conversion circuitry design for unmatched signal stability and power efficiency
- Premiere quality Japanese capacitors rated to 105°C for maximum reliability and operating life
- Top protection for components against over-currents, over- and under-voltages, short circuits, overheating and overloads; internationally tested and safety rated at 50°C
- Long service life up to 300,000 hours
- Overclocking key allows you to choose between multi-rail operation (with four independent +12V rails) and high-performance single-rail operation
Energy Efficiency
- 80PLUS Gold certification—one of the the highest available
- Very high efficiency (up to 93%) means your computer draws less power from the mains to do its work
- Saving power means saving money, but it also mean less waste heat, less cooling required, and overall quieter operation
- Standby drain less than 0.3Watts
- Meets Energy Star 5.0 guidelines
- Fulfills the ErP 2013 guidelines
- Zero Load design supports Intel’s Deep Power Down C6 mode
Maximum Compatibility and Convenience
- Professional modular cable management system with removable cable bundles simplifies component installation, reduces annoying clutter, increases airflow and allows for improved cooling
- System supports up to 32 connectors for massive system builds
- Connectors are compatible with older components as well as those still on the drawing board
- Sleeved cable lengths up to 120cm allow for improved cooling and are perfect for large PC cases
- Individual P4 and P8 plugs support all common mainboard types
- Seven PCIe connectors for powerful multi-GPU configurations (NVIDIA SLI and AMD CrossFire) up to Quad-GPU
- Clearly labeled plugs and clever accessories promote simple installation
Outstanding Service and Support
- 5 year manufacturer's warranty
- Free on-site exchange service within first year (limited to Germany and France)
- Quick support is available via our international hotline, Mondays to Fridays from 0900 to 1730 German local time.
