Zalman just launched a pair of new power supplies. Known as the ZM850-HP Plus and ZM1000-HP Plus, both units are 80 Plus Silver certified and have a power efficiency of up to 87%. The power supplies use a new heatpipe block design, which enhances cooling efficiency and minimizes noise level. There is also an all new PCB Layout that provides “effective energy usage with least energy loss”. Most importantly, both units are priced much lower than their “non-plus” predecessors so higher quailty, efficiency and build quality all for less money is a great feature.

Key features of the pair include:

• Highly efficient Design and 80 Plus Silver certified.
• Meets ErP Lot 6 Standby Power Standards.
• Two-Forward Switching Design
• Ultra Quiet 140mm Fan.
• Dual Heatpipes for Maximum Cooling Performance in Minimum Noise
• Convenient Modular Cables

The ZM850-HP Plus retails for $209.99 US while the ZM1000-HP Plus clocks in at $269.99 US. Both should be available almost right away at your favourite retailers.
