Be quiet to launch Dark Base 900 chassis with Qi Wireless Charging
Be quiet is to release two new PC chassis on the market, the Dark Base Dark Base 900 and 900 Pro. The most striking difference between the two enclosures, is the addition of a qi - charging point on the upper side of the Pro model housing with glass side panel.
As the company name implies the focus as always is silence. In addition to that, the Darkbase 900 series is also optimized for installation of water cooling. The cabinet itself is a midi-tower of 242,7mm x 585,5mm x 577,2mm and made of metal, aluminum and tempered glass 4mm thick. You can use E-ATX, XL-ATX and Mini-ITX motherboards.
Also, the motherboard tray can be rotated so that a user can decide whether the board is positioned on the left or right. Another advantage of the removable motherboard tray is that it can be used as a test bed, which makes it fast changing of parts is possible. Nine hard disks can be placed above the other, each in its own tray. Be quiet supplies seven trays. Besides a lot of room for HDD, there is also proper room for large CPU coolers up to 185mm high and extra long VGA cards and power supplies. The maximum length for a power supply is 284mm.
The design accommodates many different fans. The manufacturer uses three of its own 140mm Silent Wing-3 fans. Both models have an adjustable fan controller, but the Pro version has four PWM and three non-PWM connectors for fans, where the normal version only the last three. Also there is still a connection for an LED strip on the Pro, a SATA power connector, the aforementioned Qi charger and a glass side panel. The be quiet Darkbase Darkbase 900 and 900 Pro are available by the end of June and cost 199 and 249 euros respectively.
