be quiet! Dark Power 13 power supply unit 1000 W 20+4 pin ATX ATX Black

DARK POWER 13 1000W
NO COMPROMISE SILENCE AND PERFORMANCE
The be quiet! Dark Power 13 1000W offers 80 PLUS® Titanium efficiency, virtually inaudible operation, and ATX 3.0 compliance for next-gen GPU compatibility.

80 PLUS® TITANIUM CERTIFIED
The highest efficiency certificate available
Dark Power 13 1000W is certified with 80 PLUS Titanium and a money-saving energy efficiency rating of up to 95.2%. This provides lots of benefits for your high-end system, including less power consumption and an overall cooler and quieter operation. The standby drain is below 0.1 watts.

FUTURE-PROOF YOUR SYSTEM
Fulfills all ATX 3.0 specifications
Dark Power 13 1000W is an ATX 3.0 PSU and comes with both native integration of the 12VHPWR connector for next-generation PCIe 5.0 graphics cards, and PCIe 6+2-pin connectors for support of current-gen GPUs. This makes the PSU extremely versatile and the perfect choice for present high-end systems and the ones to come.

THE NEW STANDARD OF POWER
For massive transient loads
Dark Power 13 offers 1000W of continuous power with 4 independent 12V rails. Even if the graphics card demands excessive power for a short time: Dark Power 13 1000W handles power excursions up to double its rated power with ease. This ensures reliable operation with the next generation of processors and graphics cards.

FRAMELESS SILENT WINGS FAN
Patented fan technology for virtually inaudible operation
The improved tripod-mounted be quiet! Silent Wings fan enables maximum airflow and a virtually inaudible operation. This is thanks to its unique, airflow-optimized fan blade design along with an advanced fluid-dynamic bearing. A 6-pole fan motor ultimately makes for less vibration, super-long life and minimal power consumption.

INNOVATIVE COOLING CONCEPT
For a longer lifespan
The split fan inlet of the Dark Power 13 1000W is a custom-shaped funnel that increases airflow while reducing unwanted turbulence. The wire-free design inside allows the cool air to reach all components flawlessly which ultimately leads to a longer lifespan.

READY FOR OVERCLOCKING
Pushing the performance of your PSU to the max
Dark Power 13 1000W is particularly suitable for overclocking. The overclocking key gives you full overclocking control by manually switching between the default four 12V-rail mode and the alternative massive single-rail operation.

WORLD CLASS TOPOLOGY
State-of-the-art technology for extremely high efficiency
With an active rectifier and full bridge LLC technology Dark Power 13 1000W offers some of the most advanced technologies available, resulting in higher efficiency, better regulation and lower ripple noise for an incomparably stable operation.

JAPANESE 105° CAPACITORS
A testament to high quality
Only the best components are used in Dark Power 13 1000W. That is why we have exclusively built high-quality Japanese capacitors into the PSU chassis. They are rated to 105°C which ensures stability, reliability, and a long operating life.

HIGHEST CONVENIENCE AND BEST CONNECTIVITY
Modular cables
Modular, sleeved cables of up to 120cm in length simplify component installation and reduce annoying clutter. This results in increased airflow and improved cooling in even the largest PC cases

How to use

Install the PSU into a compatible ATX case following the case and motherboard manufacturer guidelines. Connect the 20+4 pin ATX cable to the motherboard, attach required PCIe power connectors to the graphics card (use the native 12VHPWR connector for supported next-gen GPUs), and connect SATA/Molex cables to drives as needed. Use the modular cable system to route cables cleanly and improve airflow. Ensure AC mains are disconnected while connecting cables and secure the PSU with the supplied screws.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, place the PSU so the fan intake has clear airflow and use the overclocking key only when you need single-rail operation for high transient GPU/CPU loads. Keep firmware and GPU/MB power specs in mind when pairing with next-gen graphics cards and maintain good case ventilation to preserve component lifespan.
