Because you need an X
What I want to know is what the hell does this even mean by itself. What are “power hungry applications”? The function of power consumption in PCs is tied to hardware, not the programs said hardware runs. Sure, some loads are more significant than others in terms of load, but your CPU or GPU won’t suddenly decide to consume twice their peak power envelope out of nowhere.
in this case it means usages.
"We recognize that power-hungry usages are becoming the norm for our users"
Fair, if that’s what they mean. I kinda got programmed to see applications=programs ever since the advent of smartphones and everyone started calling even desktop programs “apps”, which is infinitely annoying, but what can you do.
Personally i can only see this in some niche use cases where user needs to have absence of moving parts.
Maybe audio production, maybe industrial manufacturing room with fine particles etc.
Seasonic already offers 700W TX-700 for 250 (that's also Titanium rated) so i dont know why would someone buy something twice as expensive for only 150W more.
Isn't that the same thing really?
Or, would it actually need something like a positive pressure fan setup, and a case design allowing some airflow through for optimum performance and lifespan, anyway? What of the cases that mount the PSU upside down, and further impeding passive cooling?
That being said, it does look good.
At that price I’d pick a good platinum 1200-1300W psu with good fan bearings and quality.
Usually the fan is active only when it’s around 40-50% usage and therefore it will either be passive or in very low-rpm mode
I’d achieve around the same level of noise but more max wattage for future proofing.. and cheaper
this PSU is very niche imho it can be useful in laboratories or environments where noise must be kept to a minimum but for the average consumer I fail to see the justification at that price
but there are entire companies dedicated to passive cooled PCs in the medical & lab field. I underlined the medical & lab parts these companies use in their own words so that you can better "see"

Lastly, fans cool a computer by generating airflow. However, this movement of air is not ideal in all locations. For example, workplaces that need to be kept sterile, such as operating rooms or laboratories, need to minimize the airflow significantly. Otherwise, unwanted microbes and debris could circulate in the room. Again, fanless technology is advantageous because it does not generate an airflow.

Passive cooling is a robust solution for maintaining optimal operating temperatures in computing devices. In today’s tech-driven world, passive cooling plays a critical role in various industries, from medical facilities demanding constant cleanliness to industrial environments facing dust and grime.
[I][U]Medical Usage[/U][/I]
In medical settings, computers must run continuously, demanding frequent cleaning for disinfection while avoiding the circulation of dust particles. Passive or fanless cooling solutions fulfill these essential requirements.These systems allow medical computers to operate without fans, reducing the risk of fan malfunction during extended operation. Moreover, the fanless design enables complete sealing of the unit, eliminating the need for vents to prevent overheating.
This feature is critical, ensuring that medical devices can be easily maintained without compromising their functionality.
