Silence meets Power: Cooler Master and Infineon redefine high-performance PC power supplies

Internet of Things

For decades, high-performance computing came with a trade-off: High power meant high heat, and high heat meant noisy cooling fans. In the world of professional digital content creation, 3D design, and immersive gaming, silence is just as valuable as raw performance.

This year, our associated partner Cooler Master, a renowned specialist in PC hardware and thermal solutions, shattered that trade-off. With the launch of the X Silent Edge Platinum, they have introduced the industry's first fanless power supply unit (PSU) capable of delivering up to 1100W – built on Infineon’s power solutions.   

Designing a power supply that delivers over 1000 watts without active cooling is a massive engineering challenge. To eliminate the fan, the device can only generate a small amount of heat, which requires exceptional energy efficiency. It demands the incorporation of traditional silicon with other advanced power technologies that can handle high loads with near-zero energy loss.

To achieve this breakthrough, Cooler Master deepened its collaboration with Infineon to engineer a robust, system-level solution. The resulting power architecture relies extensively on Infineon’s portfolio, integrating components from the AC input stage all the way to the DC output to ensure maximum performance.

The X Silent Edge Platinum utilizes a comprehensive portfolio of Infineon’s cutting-edge components to deliver top-tier energy efficiency:

  • Wide-Bandgap Technology: The design leverages CoolSiC™ and CoolMOS™ power semiconductors to drastically reduce switching losses and heat generation.
  • Precision Control: Infineon’s PFC and DC-DC controllers alongside EiceDriver™ gate driver ICs ensure stable, highly efficient power delivery.
  • Solid State Cooling: The unit leverages Cooler Master’s proprietary aluminum heat-pipe technology to manage thermals for the entire system. This advanced heatsink solution works in synergy with Infineon’s CoolSiC™, CoolMOS™, and OptiMOS™ devices, ensuring reliable passive cooling even at high wattages.

The X Silent Edge Platinum offers a "zero-noise" operation, making it the ideal solution for sound engineers, streamers, and professionals who require absolute silence. Further, the removal of the fan eliminates dust intake, significantly increasing the longevity and reliability of the hardware.

This collaboration serves as a prime example of "System Selling" in action. By integrating Infineon’s full spectrum of power solutions—from the AC line to the DC output—Cooler Master has created a product that sets a new benchmark for the PC cooling market. 

Cooler Master is a global PC cooling and hardware company with operations in 37+ countries and multiple manufacturing sites. It delivers system-level solutions—including air and liquid cooling, power supplies, cases, and peripherals—for gaming/DIY, consumer, and industrial applications.
