A DC-to-DC module means the lower voltages are derived from the 12 V rail by a separate converter, which keeps them steady even when the load changes. All capacitors are Japanese, and the single +12 V rail feeds the processor and graphics card from one source. Protections cover overcurrent, overvoltage, short circuit, overpower and overtemperature, and FSP states the unit is approved under global safety regulations.
HEXA 85+ PRO 450 is meant for an office PC, a home computer or a system with integrated graphics, where 450 W leaves enough headroom. It also works as a replacement for an old unit in a standard ATX case. If a more demanding graphics card is planned, look at a larger model of the same line: the HEXA 85+ series comes in 350, 450, 550 and 650 W versions.

Add up the processor and graphics card consumption and leave some headroom. The safest guide is the PSU wattage recommended by your graphics card maker: if it is 450 W or less, HEXA 85+ PRO 450 will handle it.
It is an efficiency certification showing that the unit converts mains power economically, so less energy turns into heat. Less heat also means the fan does not need to spin fast.
The manufacturer does not specify whether the unit is modular. Before installing, check that your case has enough room to route the cables.
