be quiet! Dark Base Pro 900 rev.2

ATX, mATX, Mini ITX, E-ATX, XL-ATX

Product details

The decoupled mainboard tray offers flexible installation options for all space requirements. It can be set or removed in three different heights and used as a benchtable.
In addition an inverse installation on the left side is possible. E-ATX and XL-ATX mainboards are fully compatible.

The three pre-installed Silent Wings 3 PWM fans offer almost inaudible operation. They are equipped with a high-quality 6-pole fan motor, a long-life fluid-dynamic bearing and air-flow-optimised fan blades. The rubberized frame has funnel-shaped air inlets that provide high air pressure.

The use of individual HDD slots, which can be moved and removed individually, allows a flexible response to space requirements. The installation of up to five HDDs, ten SSDs and two ODDs is possible. The convenient slot covers cover unused HDD slots and keep the inside of the PC tidy.

he PSU cover not only conceals the power supply unit and provides an optically tidy PC interior - it has even more to offer: The top panels are individually removable so that it is possible to install fans on the bottom or top of the PSU cover. There is also room for a radiator at the front.

With its sophisticated concept for quiet operation, Dark Base Pro 900 rev. 2 is the perfect housing for the extreme requirements of overclocking and water cooling systems. Up to seven fans and four radiators can be installed additionally. The innovative noise-reducing air vents provide a fully comprehensive, effective air flow around the housing.

The eight PWM fan connections are divided into two rails, which can be switched separately into a silence or performance mode. The two cooling zones are controlled simultaneously via the switch on the front. If all fans are to run at the same speed, both channels can also be switched to the same mode.

The case is equipped with an elegant, fully glazed side window made of tinted tempered glass. The LED lighting can be selected from five different colours. The LED strips can be positioned freely in the housing as required.

The front I/O port offers perfect compatibility for high-end PCs. The connection of USB 3.1 Type C 2 Gen. is supported. Integrated charging station for wireless charging Qi-capable devices such as smartphones.
