be quiet! has expanded its power supply lineup with the introduction of the Power Zone 2 1200 W and the Pure Power 13 M 1200 W. Both PSUs are designed to meet the needs of high-performance gaming rigs and workstation builds, combining efficiency, quiet operation, and compatibility with current and next-generation hardware. Each PSU features a sturdy steel enclosure and comes with a 10-year manufacturer’s warranty, reflecting the company’s focus on reliability and durability.
The Power Zone 2 1200 W continues be quiet!’s gaming-oriented PSU series with 80 Plus Platinum and Cybenetics Platinum certification, reaching up to 94.3% efficiency. The unit employs semi-passive zero-RPM cooling with a 140 mm Pure Wings 3 fan, which only activates when required and continues running briefly after load drops. This design reduces start-stop noise and prevents unnecessary wear. Fully ATX 3.1 compliant and PCIe 5.1 ready, the PSU includes two 12V-2×6 cables with 90° angled connectors, each capable of delivering 600 W, as well as three PCIe 6+2-pin connectors for modern graphics cards. The fully modular black flat cables simplify cable management and contribute to a cleaner build appearance.
The Pure Power 13 M 1200 W extends the mainstream series with 80 Plus Gold certification, achieving up to 93.5% efficiency while maintaining quiet operation. It features a 120 mm temperature-controlled fan that keeps noise low under medium and light loads and remains quiet even under higher loads. The PSU employs a combination of LLC, synchronous rectification, and DC/DC conversion to ensure stable power delivery. It is ATX 3.1 compliant and PCIe 5.1 compatible, featuring a 12V-2×6 connector and four PCIe 6+2 connectors. The fully modular cables make routing easier and reduce clutter inside the chassis.
Retail availability of the Power Zone 2 1200 W is set for January 27 at $269.90 / €229.90, while the Pure Power 13 M 1200 W will be available from February 10 at $229.90 / €199.90.
