It depends on pricing and the specific unit. Most of BeQuiet!'s psus come from FSP but a few of the Dark Power Pro 10's are from Seasonic.

Both are pretty decent, though I personally wouldn't pay full price for a Dark Power Pro, a bit too pricey for my tastes. (Thanks to an awesome sale I paid $117CDN shipped with NCIX's 2 year warranty for my Dark Power Pro. Would cost $120CDN more if I made the same order right now.)

 

Cost aside I have no issues other than the rainbow spaghetti cables. The Straight Power has the better fan though, it was released after Be Quiet! finished their Silent Wings 3 design.
