DeepCool is a Chinese company offering cooling solutions, cases, and power supplies (PSUs), along with a rich variety of PC accessories. The company revealed three new additions to its mainstream DA PSU line--the DA500, DA600, and DA700 models. All three feature 80 PLUS Bronze efficiency and promise a quiet operation, thanks to their silent 120mm fans. In addition, they feature a non-modular cable design, in order to restrict the production cost and have a lower MSRP, and they are most likely based on a CWT (Channel Well Technology) platform. The same OEM also provides the platforms for all the other DA models.

The DA700 and DA600 units are equipped with four PCIe connectors, so they will easily support a solid gaming system with two graphics cards installed. In addition, the dimensions of all new DA models are quite compact, at only 140mm in length. According to DeepCool, all protection features are present, including OTP, which usually isn't offered in mainstream PSUs. We will have to verify the available protections to be sure they exist, though, because many PSU manufacturers list protections without actually implementing them. Lastly, the warranty is set at three years. DeepCool unfortunately hasn't provided price information.
