Be Quiet! Dark Power Pro 10 650W PSU Review

Unboxing the Dark Power Pro 10 650W

Our Dark Power Pro 10 650W unit arrived in a large, strong cardboard box, inside which the power supply is very carefully packed and sandwiched between thick packaging foam. The artistic theme is very dark and serious, obviously trying to make a professional impression.

Be Quiet! printed a lot of information on the back of the box, from the list of features down to the length of each individual cable, making the packaging itself essentially a basic manual.

A very complete bundle awaits those who will buy a Be Quiet! Dark Power Pro 10 unit as the company included virtually everything they could include with a power supply, with the very minor exception of a case badge. The company provides cable ties, cable straps, a set of five long black screws and another set of five thumbscrews, a bracket with the OCK switch (more on that later), a jumper to bypass OCK and even four cables which provide eight extra 3-pin fan connectors.

Instead of a pouch, Be Quiet! stores the modular cables in a solid cardboard box. The cables are typical color-coded wires covered with ordinary black sleeving. Each bundle is held by a straight cable strap, therefore there are five more straps here than those we counted before. The picture below depicts the length of each cable and the number of connectors.
