Power provides are one of many extra utilitarian components of any PC construct. Most customers test to see if it’s received sufficient juice and the best cable connections, possibly search for a bit extra effectivity, and that’s about it. But Cooler Master’s latest high-end design would possibly earn a number of followers, particularly as a result of it’s lacking one. A fan, that’s. It’s fanless. Doesn’t want one. See what I did there? Happy New Year, anyone get me some espresso.

The X Silent Edge Platinum sequence is available in 850-watt and 1100-watt varieties, in accordance with leaked supplies discovered by French website Hardwareand.co (by way of VideoCardz). In addition to the standard modular setup, an 80-Plus Platinum effectivity score, and extra output choices than you may shake a chrome steel stick at, the PSUs function PCIe 5.0 connections with what seems to be the 12VHWPR connector for the most recent graphics playing cards. Notably it’s not labeled because the slightly tweaked 12V-2×6 variant of the plug, however these are so comparable that it is perhaps appropriate with it anyway.

The leak additionally features a new 1300-watt “X Silent Max Platinum” energy provide, which does include a normal fan. But primarily based on the “silent” branding and the exploded view of what appears like a normal 120mm fan, it is perhaps tuned to activate quite a bit much less regularly than different high-capacity PSUs. Fanless PSU designs aren’t totally new, however they aren’t sometimes seen at something shut to those wattage capacities.

Though these energy provides are but to be confirmed by Cooler Master, they’re set to be introduced at CES in Las Vegas subsequent week. That would put them on the right track for launch someday within the first half of 2024, so in the event you’re getting ready for a silent PC construct, hold them in thoughts.
