Characteristics
MONITORING AND FULL CONTROL
With the be quiet! IO Center softwareThe Dark Power Pro 14 IO 1600W is the first be quiet! PSU with smart software control via the be quiet! IO Center. It lets you switch between Multi Rail and Single Rail modes and choose semi passive or active fan settings. The dashboard shows real-time data for efficiency, fan speed and power usage. A cost calculator estimates your energy expenses over time. With this blend of power and insight, it sets a new standard for intelligent PSU control.
SWITCH IT
Switch effortlessly between active and semi-passive coolingThe Dark Power Pro 14 IO 1600W gives full control over cooling and performance. Choose between a balanced active mode for constant, efficient airflow, or a smart semi-passive mode where the fan stops during light loads. When things heat up, the Silent Wings fan powers on seamlessly to deliver the cooling the system needs.
READY FOR OVERCLOCKING
Maximum strengthDark Power Pro 14 IO 1600W is particularly suitable for overclocking. With the be quiet! IO Center software, it is possible to manually switch between multi-rail and single-rail mode. This gives full overclocking control, from the default six 12V-rail mode to the alternative massive single-rail operation.
THE HIGHEST EFFICIENCY POSSIBLE
Titanium efficiencyDark Power Pro 14 IO 1600W is certified with 80 PLUS® Titanium and Cybenetics Titanium for a stunning energy efficiency rating of up to 94.9%. This provides lots of benefits for a high-end system, including less power consumption and an overall cooler and quieter operation.
PEAK TECHNOLOGY
Higher efficiency and lower ripple noiseExperience with Dark Power Pro 14 IO 1600W the most technologically advanced power supply be quiet! has ever built! Using an advanced digital full bridge LLC technology results in higher efficiency, better regulation and lower ripple noise for an incomparably stable operation.
HEAT SINK AND INTEGRATED SILENT WINGS
Simply fan-tasticA large heat sink connects to the parts of the power supply that need the most cooling and dissipates a large portion of the heat. Even though a Titanium efficiency power supply does not generate as much heat, active cooling is required to prevent overheating issues under high load. Nothing less than the very best fan of be quiet! cools Dark Power Pro 14 IO 1600W. Being integrated directly into the heat sink, this high-end fan is immune to vibrations. A 6-pole fan motor and fluid-dynamic bearing ultimately make for exceptionally long lifetime and minimal power consumption.
105°C CAPACITORS FROM JAPAN
Only the bestEach component in Dark Power Pro 14 IO 1600W is carefully selected. That is why we have exclusively used high-quality Japanese capacitors for this PSU. They are rated to 105°C, ensure stability, reliability, and a long operating life.
NEXT GEN
ATX 3.1 compatibilityDark Power Pro 14 IO 1600W is an ATX 3.1 PSU and comes with both native integration of two 12V-2x6 connectors for next-generation PCIe 5.1 graphics cards and 4 PCIe 6+2-pin connectors for support of all current-gen GPUs. This makes the PSU extremely versatile and perfect for current and future high-end systems.
