Introduction:

    In today's crosshairs we have a couple of modular power supplies from a company called be quiet! That's right, I said BE QUIET! This is another new company to me and looking over their site, I've found they offer some really nice looking power supplies at many different price levels. be quiet! sent out 2 power supplies for review: the BQT P6 PRO750W and the BQT P6 PRO-850W. These units are identical in every way except for the 100W difference, which is spread out over several of the power rails. Also these power supplies have been Nvidia SLI and ATI CrossFire approved.

Packaging:


Front

Spooky

Another box

Finally a PSU

Cable box

Colored  ties

    Like I mentioned in the introduction, these two power supplies are identical... even down to the packaging. The boxes are wrapped in clear plastic so you can tell if they have been tampered with. Each of the boxes have a picture of the modular power supply on the front and a cable breakdown on the back. The top of the box has a set of scary green eyes staring you down.

    After opening up the top of the box you are greeted with another box. This box contains all the cables for the modular setup. Under this box is the modular Dark Power Pro PSU, wrapped in bubble wrap for extra protection. Cable ties are also included in several colors to help manage all the cables that are being used.
