Cooler Master Outs Silent Pro M2 Series PSUs

No matter how Kick Ass your gaming rig is, the PC's bound to crash and burn if your power supply isn't up to snuff. Cooler Master's Silent Pro M series of PSUs gets a lot of love from hardcore system builders for its efficiency, silent running and reasonable price -- and now it's getting an update. Today, the company pulled the proverbial curtain off the creatively named Silent Pro M2 series, which Cooler Master claims is better than its predecessor in every possible way.

A wide range of models will be available when the PSUs hit the streets sometime next month: 420W, 520W, 620W, 720W, 850W and 1000W models are all planned in prices ranging from €80 ($105) to €170 ($223). The 850W and 1000W variants are 80 Plus Silver, while the rest are "just" 80 Plus Bronze. All of the Silent Pro M2 PSUs sport a single 12V rail, modular cabling, and a new 135mm Hydraulic Dynamic Bearing fan that should help to keep things cool and quiet (with a little help from a copper-aluminum heat sink.) The series also includes a host of different power protections, and if those safeguards somehow fail to work, Cooler Master backs up its product with a 5-year warranty.

Listing out the various specs would take a lot of space, so if you're interested, head on over to the Silent Pro M2 Series page over at the Cooler Master website for more info and pics. As we said, expect to start seeing these in March.
