Modular power supply 1500W ATX 12V 2.51/EPS 12V 2.92

Overview

A technology-packed power supply that delivers top performance

The Dark Power Pro 12 is the most advanced power supply ever designed by be quiet! It features an unmatched efficiency of up to 94.9% as a result of the first 80 PLUS Titanium certification and a fully digital PFC and LLC + SR / 12V control, resulting in better regulation and lower ripple noise. For these reasons, the Dark Power Pro 12 is a model of efficiency and stability. In addition to unrivalled efficiency, the patented frameless fan concept with SilentWings fan ensures an optimised cooling effect and virtually inaudible operation for ordinary loads. All these features make the new Dark Power Pro 12 the most scalable power supply ever built by be quiet!

Enjoy more and more performance

The Dark Power Pro 12's ingenious design ensures exceptional performance. The corolla shape, which houses the fan underneath the power supply's grille, allows for increased airflow without generating turbulence. The installed SilentWings fan includes a wide range of electronic and mechanical optimisations for even more efficient airflow, all in a quiet manner. The variable fan speed is digitally controlled to achieve the perfect balance between cooling and silence.

This power supply features advanced Full Bridge, LLC, Synchronous Rectifier (SR) and DC/DC voltage conversion circuitry for unmatched signal stability and unbeatable power efficiency. Its overclocking key allows switching from four independent 12V rail operation to single rail operation. Equipped with high quality Japanese capacitors, this power supply guarantees maximum reliability and longevity. Finally, it ensures you optimal performance as it takes advantage of optimised component protections against overcurrent, overvoltage and undervoltage, short circuit, overheating, overload.

    1500 Watts, enough to keep the monster running smoothly

    To run my 2 graphics cards + a powerful processor with 32 cores and for good performance, I recommend buying a transformer of more than 1200W, with a little margin this one is efficient, silent and does not overheat even during energy-intensive tasks.

    Really great

    A wonderful bundle... tons of connectors, enough to put 2 4090 cards (I don't even know if sli is possible on these cards).
    Everything is quality in this titanium power supply! The cables are all protected, the scratch pads provided are beautiful. The design is sober but qualitative. I love it!
