be quiet! Pure Power 11 FM 850W Power Supply Review

Any product with the be quiet! name comes with an exceptionally solid reputation for performance and reliability. And when it comes to power supplies, that’s exactly what consumers should be looking for. Well, they should also be looking for excellent features, and, wherever possible, high levels of energy efficiency too, but you get the idea! – With the release of their new Pure Power 11 FM range, therefore, this certainly seems to be ticking all of the right boxes the savvy PSU customer should have!

be quiet! Pure Power 11 FM 850W Power Supply

Available in wattage outputs of 650 all the way up to 1,000, the new Pure Power 11 FM range effectively represents be quiet’s new entry-level power supply standard. And trust me when I say that in generic overall comparative market terms, be quiet! clearly sets a very lofty standard for that remit!

Offering a fully modular cable design, a near-silent operation, and an 80 Plus Gold efficiency rating, the Pure Power 11 FM series offers all of the key features people want to see in a high-quality PSU design. – With this in mind, therefore, we were more than a little curious to see how well this 850W model would perform!

What Does be quiet! Have to Say?

“Pure Power stands for peerless dependability and best-in-class features at a competitive price point. Pure Power 11 FM is the latest addition to this series: ‘FM’ stands for ‘Fully Modular’, which means that all cables that serve no purpose in the system are left out. This results in a smoother airflow, lower temperatures and easier handling inside the case.

Pure Power 11 FM is 80 PLUS® Gold certified with an efficiency rating of up to 93.9%, a truly outstanding level for this class of PSU. The most compelling benefits of this high efficiency are the lower power consumption and consequently lower costs and a cooler, quieter operation. Unlike other Pure Power 11 models which feature Active Clamp, Synchronous Rectifier (SR) and DC-toDC technology, the Pure Power 11 FM series is equipped with LLC + SR + DC/DC technology for advanced stability and voltage regulation. Cooling is achieved with a silence-optimized 120mm be quiet! fan with airflow-optimized fan blades. This enables best-in-class quiet functionality and the
extraordinarily silent operation that be quiet! is famous for.”
