The Cooler Master Silent Pro Gold 600W is a stellar power supply which exceeded our expectations. The 80 Plus Gold certification is well deserved as we recorded around 92% efficiency at 50% load.
While we don't often comment on the build quality, with this particular product we need to reiterate the stunning attention to detail … from the deep, high quality spray finish to the well researched cable protection system. Internally no corners have been cut with a unique L shaped heatsink design, quality Adda fan and Hybrid Transformer design which combines the heat sink with transformer.
The high efficiency and rock solid rail stability is partnered with very low noise levels, rating as silent at 50% load. Ripple is a little higher than we normally record, however it does still fall within the tolerance guidelines.
The design is minimalist, yet very attractive – reminding us a little of the recent Corsair AX products. A simple colour scheme with modern use of typography ensures that this product will attract, not offend.
If I was in the market myself for a 600W power supply and needed the highest levels of efficiency then I can rate no better. It does come with a higher price tag than most (£100 inc vat), but in this case it is worth every penny.
KitGuru says: A fantastic product with attractive design, top notch efficiency and low noise levels, making it ideal for a high quality media center or gaming system.
