"Buy purely for wattage"
3 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

I had a few issues with my PSU, had a replacement sent but had the same issues with it. Keep in mind this is just a sample size of two so your mileage may vary. I bought this particular PSU brand/range simply because of the Silent Wing fan it uses as noise is a significant annoyance for me. I planned on using the PSU for multiple builds in the future hence the 1000W rating.

Almost as soon as I installed it in my system I had issues with the PSU producing a ticking/tapping sound similar to someone running their nail slowly down a ridged food can. I also had issues with increased EMI (Electromagnetic Interference) for my sound card as well as coil whine for my mobo VRM (I'm not running a heavy OC, just 4.7Ghz on a delidded LM i7–8700k with max running voltages of 1.38V avg at 1.29V). I am now using a separate PSU brand/model and the VRM coil whine has decreased a significant amount and the EMI picked up on my sound card has been removed. Concerning the coil whine, my CPU is installed into a Z390 board, a chip-set that after initial research apparently has heightened issues with coil whine. The EMI that my sound card is picking up on is most likely coming from an RTX GPU in my system, which just as with the Z390 chipset seems to have heightened issues but with EMI rather than coil whine. The PSU seemed to amplify these issues to a point where it was personally unbearable.

My experience with the Be Quiet! support however was very pleasant. I first contacted them with a description of the PSU tapping noise and a sound file. Within a few days I got my first reply wherein they informed me they had contacted Mighty Ape to organise a replacement unit to be sent to me. No running me around, just a quick response with a proper solution.

If you plan on buying this PSU with the intent of running a silence focused build then I would advise against it. I would only recommend this PSU based on my experience if you want a fully modular PSU with good price to performance ratio for a build that will have other noisy components (such as high RPM chassis fans).

Description

1000W be quiet! Straight Power 11

WORLD CLASS QUIET AND EFFICIENCY:

be quiet! Straight Power 11 1000W raises the bar for systems that demand virtually inaudible operation without power quality compromises.

Features:

  • Virtually inaudible Silent Wings 3 135mm fan
  • Funnel-shaped fan opening of the PSU case for high airflow intake
  • Wire-free inside the PSU on the DC side for enhanced cooling and longevity
  • Full cable management for maximum build flexibility
  • 80PLUS® Gold efficiency (up to 93%)
  • Powerful multi-GPU support with six PCI-Express connectors
  • Japanese 105°C-rated capacitors ensure stability and reliability
  • ErP and Energy Star 6.1 ready
  • 5-year manufacturer’s wa­rranty

SILENT WINGS 3 FAN
Provides virtually inaudible operation

The high-end Silent Wings 3 fan delivers best-of-class airflow yet produces very little noise. This is thanks to its unique, optimized fan blade design along with an advanced fluid-dynamic bearing and 6-pole fan motor that largely eliminates operational noise, has a super-long life and minimal power consumption.

FUNNEL-SHAPED FAN OPENING
Higher cooling performance

The fan inlet of the Straight Power 11 1000W is funnel-shaped. It causes an increased throughput of air which benefits to a higher cooling performance.

WIRE-FREE DESIGN INSIDE THE PSU
Pushing the longevity of components to a maximum

An absolute innovation: The Straight Power 11 1000W is wire-free on the DC side inside the PSU body. This results in improved cooling airflow and less signal disturbance, simply because of a lack of wiring, and ultimately pushes the lifetimes of the components to a maximum.

FULLY MODULAR CABLE MANAGEMENT
Utmost convenience and compatibility

Thanks to the fully modular cable management, cables that serve no purpose in the system are left out. For this reason systems always appear very tidy. At the same time installation is performed much more conveniently. A smoother airflow results from the uncluttered layout of the system, which means lower noise and temperatures prevail inside the case.

80PLUS® GOLD CERTIFIED
Impressively high efficiency

Straight Power 11 1000W is certified with 80PLUS® Gold efficiency, reaching up to 93%. This gives less power consumption and a cooler and quieter operation. Truly a benefit for any system.

HIGH-CLASS TECHNOLOGIES
Compatibility for the systems of tomorrow

The use of LLC and Synchronous Rectifier (SR) provides very stable operation and enhanced voltage regulation.The PSU is equipped with DC-to-DC conversion for tight voltage regulation even under heavy cross-loading conditions. This ensures reliable operation with the next generation of processors and graphics cards.

JAPANESE 105° CAPACITORS
A testament to high quality

Only the best components are used in Straight Power 11 1000W. That is why we have built only high-quality Japanese capacitors into the PSU chassis. They are rated to 105°C, ensuring stability, reliability and a long operating life.
