Hello Paul, No, the QS and DA PSUs are not the same; the QuickSilvers had different (separate) connectors for the 12-volt (?) loads; also, their form factors are the same size as the DA PSU, but do connect differently to their respective cases. RE: connection to the motherboards, the DA PSU is more like the Sawtooths and Gig-Es, the I suspect wattage is increased for the Das.
