Be Quiet! Introduce New Power Zone Power Supply Series
Ryan Martin / 11 years ago
Be Quiet have just revealed their latest series of Power Supplies, dubbed Power Zone. These new power supplies are described as “the all-round PSU for high performance, gaming, multimedia and multiple GPU system builds”. The Power Zone power supplies use an active clamp as well as a DC/DC topology. The certification of these units will be 80 Plus Bronze with up to 90% efficiency.
Cooling is provided be a Be Quiet Silent Wings 135mm fan. Be Quiet claim that the use of six poles inside the electric fan motor instead of two or four means the transitions are smoother and thus vibration is greatly reduced. Every power supply has an individually tuned profile based on its wattage and all power supplies have a “COOL OFF” feature that means the power supply spins for up to 3 minutes after shut-down to cool down the components and extend longevity. Users can also connect up to three fans to the power supply and these will vary in speed by the built in thermal profile that uses system load from the power supply to determine fan speed.
These new PSUs support up to 3 way SLI/CFX (1000W model), support Intel C6/C7 and have ErP 2013 certification.
Pricing is as follows, note all prices include VAT where applicable:
- 650W – €105 or $115 US/CA
- 750W – €125 or $135 US/CA
- 850W – €149 or $159 US/CA
- 1000W – €169 or $189 US/CA
Be Quiet have stated that the Power Zone power supplies will all be available by the middle of September. The 1000W and 850W are apparently already available now.
