The Dark Power 12 1000W is a high-end 80+ Titanium certified power supply from be quiet! It offers an efficiency of up to 95.6% thanks to its active rectifier and full bridge LLC technology. The modularity of its cables increases the airflow and improves the cooling of your case while reducing unwanted tangles.
The Dark Power 12 is 80 PLUS Titanium certified and has an energy efficiency rating of up to 95.6%. This offers many benefits for your high-end system, including lower power consumption and overall more efficient and quieter cooling. Standby power consumption is less than 0.1 watts.
The Silent Wings fan mounted on a tripod provides maximum airflow and virtually inaudible operation. This is due to its unique, airflow-optimised blade design, as well as the advanced fluid-dynamic bearing technology and 6-pole motor for less vibration, extremely long life and minimal power consumption.
The Dark Power 12's integrated fan opening is funnel-shaped, which increases airflow while reducing unwanted turbulence. The wireless design of the PSU interior allows cool air to optimally reach all components, resulting in longer life.
Only the best components are used in the Dark Power 12. That is why we have integrated only high quality Japanese capacitors in the power supply chassis. Their temperature rating is 105°C, which ensures stability, reliability and long life.
With its active rectifier and full bridge LLC technology, the Dark Power 12 offers some of the most advanced technology on the market, resulting in higher efficiency, better regulation and lower ripple noise for unparalleled stable operation.

Quiet, efficient, very stable. I am totally satisfied with this product which is going to last. The build quality is there, the packaging intelligent.
The power supply lines are extremely stable.
You will find in the box, as a bonus, a plastic link with an adhesive surface for "cable management".
