Dear customer!
Congratulations for purchasing one premium quality SHARKOON product.
For a long life time and to take full advantage of this product we recommend that you
read this manual completely.
Have a good time with our product!
SHARKOON Technologies GmbH
1. Features
ATX 12 V v.2.2 and EPS 2.91 compatible:
Supports the latest Intel and AMD processor based systems.
Separate 12 V rails:
Independent 12 V rails for CPU (V1), graphics card (V2+V4),
mainboard and drives (V3) guarantee a stable power supply for
all components.
High energy efficiency:
This power supply achieves a maximum of 84% energy efficiency.
This value indicates the ratio (in percent) between energy input
and output. The closer this value reaches 100%, the less power
dissipation does the PSU produce.
Cable management:
The PSU provides a modular cable system.Thus only the required
cables need to be connected.
Flat cables:
The included flat cables can be placed optimally and help
smoothen the air flow in the PC case.
Active PFC function:
This power supply operates with active power factor correction
(PFC).
135 mm fan:
The installed 135 mm fan provides a considerably higher airflow
with lower rpm, thus reducing the operating noise effectively.
PCIe connectors:
This power supply unit is equipped with two PCIe connectors
(2x 6+2-pin).

4. The modular system of the SilentStorm CM PSUs
The special feature of these PSUs is the so called cable management system to
connect the peripheral devices.Thanks to this modular system only the really required
cables need to be connected thus keeping your case proper and optimizing the airflow
within.
4.1 The connectors at the PSU
A – 4-pin connectors for peripheral devices
B – 6-pin connectors for SATA devices
C – 8-pin connectors for PCIe graphics cards
4.2 The modular cables
Besides the 20+4-pin ATX connector cable and a 4+4-pin P8 connector cable – all
soldered to the PSU – the SilentStorm CM PSUs are delivered with an extensive set of
special modular flat cables:
2x PCIe connector cable
(red 8-pin PSU connector) for graphics
cards (1 connector 6+2-pin each)

3x SATA connector cable
(blue 6-pin PSU connector) for SATA
drives (2 connectors each)
1x cable adapter (4-pin peripheral
devices > 4-pin floppy connector)
5. Installation
Remove an already installed PSU from the case. Proceed as follows:
1. Switch off your PC. Disconnect the PSU’s power cord from the wall outlet and your
PSU. Unplug all cables connected to the PC case (e.g. keyboard, mouse etc.).
2. Open the PC case (for additional information refer to the PC case’s manual).
3. Disconnect all cable connections between the PSU and other PC components (e.g.
mainboard, HDDs, drives, fans etc.).
4. Remove the mounting screws connecting PSU and PC case and carefully take the
PSU out of the case.
5.1 Installing the SilentStorm CM PSU into a PC case
1. Insert the SilentStorm CM into the PC case and put it against the PSU bracket on
the case’s back side.
2. Screw the PSU to the case from the outside using the included screws. Pay
attention not to cover the fan/air intake of the built-in PSU.

Note:
All connectors are designed fault-preventing to avoid misconnection. If you cannot
attach the female connector to the drive’s or peripheral’s male connector, check if both
connectors are attached in the correct orientation.
Do not force to plug the female connector into the male connector in wrong
orientation, nor modify any of the components, as this will damage the PSU and your
hardware. SHARKOON warranty does not cover damage caused by incorrect handling.
5.2.2 Connecting mainboard and graphics card(s)
1. Plug the ATX power connector (fig. 1) to the respective jack on the mainboard.
fig. 1
2. In case your mainboard also provides an additional 4-pin or 4+4-pin power connector
(the so called P4 resp. P8 connector) also plug in the respective connector (fig. 2).
fig. 2
Note:
The mainboard’s power connection depends on the vendor and may vary. For
detailed information on how to establish the power connection refer to your
mainboard’s manual.

ENGLISH

3. In case your PCIe graphics card is equipped with an additional power connector, also
plug the respective 6-pin or 6+2-pin PCIe power connector (fig. 3) which will provide a
stable power support for your graphics card.
fig. 3
Note:
A maximum of 2 graphics cards with 6+2-pin power plug can be connected to this
PSU. For more info refer to your graphics card’s manual.
5.2.3 Connecting optical drives and other peripheral devices
1. Connect the 4-pin plug (fig. 4), the SATA plug (fig. 5) and the 4-pin floppy plug (fig. 6)
to the respective peripheral devices.
Note:
For more information refer to the respective manuals of your drives and peripheral
devices.
5.2.4 Connecting the cables to the PSU
Finally connect the modular cables to the PSU according to the color and connector
coding (see above 4.).
5.2.5 Checking all connections
Make sure that all devices are connected properly then plug the PSU’s power cord to
a wall outlet and switch the power supply on. This ends the installation of the
SilentStorm CM PSU.

6. Troubleshooting
In case the power supply does not work properly, check the following topics:
1. Is the power cord correctly connected to a wall outlet and the PSU’s power
connector?
2. Makesuretheon/offswitchisturnedtothe“I”position.
3. Check if the main power connector is correctly plugged to the mainboard.
4. Check if the power connectors are properly connected to the peripheral devices in
case the short circuit protection function was activated when switching on the PSU.
5. Turn the power switch off and back on several times with a minimum cycle pause of 5
seconds.
