be quiet! System Power 10 BN330

German pedantry

be quiet! System Power 10 850W is a long-awaited update to the junior series of power supplies from the famous German brand.

The cables are still modular, but now flat and soft, which facilitates their neat placement inside the PC case.

Unification of electronics

Thus, be quiet! unified its circuit design for one OEM partner. Let us remind you that we have previously encountered be quiet! still based on FSP.
