Worse than a China firecracker power supply unit
After three years of careful use (only lightly loaded) a capacitor or something burst, in any case there was a bang! The brand name is a mockery (Be quiet).
P.S. Fun Fact: 5 days after I wrote the above, Digitec writes that I can sell the part! :-)Contra
- Does not break until 1 year after the warranty expires

Silent
I am very satisfied with it, the fan is not the only thing you hear. What bothers me are the cables, I thought they were all sleeved, but if you hide them well you don't see them anyway.
Pro
- Silent
Don't know how it sounds, couldn't hear it yet
Supplies reliable power for my computer, couldn't hear it yet, as the CPU cooler is always louder and the hard drive anyway.
Unfortunately, the various cables are tediously grouped together, so I had to buy additional SATA power cables to connect everything.
The CM thing isn't that great either, the only cables I could save were the GPU cables because my GPU doesn't need one. The cables that come with it don't allow you to populate all the ports on the PSU.Pro
- Quiet
Contra
- Cable groups
- Modularity brings little

Good and quiet.
Solid power supply with modular cable management, perfect for mid-range builds. The fan is very quiet, as you would expect from be quiet! I have it installed in my living room media centre PC and it is inaudible even when the room is quiet. The ribbon cables have proven to be beneficial for my PC.
Pro
- Cable management
- Quiet
- Price/performance ratio
Purchase worthwhile, strong and quiet
Wonderful. I especially liked the workmanship and the quality/combination possibility of the cables.
Pro
- Cable diversity
- Cable quality
Contra
- Cable length could perhaps become tight with larger PCs? Pay attention to length
- Was a bit tricky because of the length until the mainboard was connected (Midi 700 Tower from BeQuiet).
