be quiet! Dark Power Pro 12 1500W (Titanium) Review

This is a very substantial unit, very heavy in the hand and very striking to look at. It is crafted from brushed aluminum and feels like the proverbial tank.

The dimensions are 86mm x 200 mm x 150 mm.

A large fan can be seen at the top of the housing. There is a fine meshed fan grill in front of the fan. This is quite a unique design and I will go into this a bit deeper shortly.

One side of the power supply is home to the power switch and venting port – there is also a power connector which accepts a heavy duty C19 cable (60320). These are not interchangeable incidentally with a standard power cable you will find in most other power supplies. These cables are often supplied with high demand power amplifiers as well.

The modular drive bay is cleanly laid out and labelled for ease of use during the build phase.

The 1500W unit delivers 25A to both the +3V and +5V rail. The 12V rails are split 40A/V1, 40A/V2, 40A/V3, 40A/V4. 45A/V5 and 45A/V6, although as discussed earlier in the review, you can use the supplied overclocking key to set the unit to a single 125A 12V rail. The 1200W unit is able to deliver 100A in a single rail +12V mode.
