Following its recent showcase at CES 2026, be quiet! has announced the official release date for its two latest high-wattage PSUs designed for high-end systems: the Power Zone 2 1200W and Pure Power 13 M 1200W.
Power Zone 2 1200W
The Power Zone 2 1200W continues be quiet!’s gaming-focused PSU series, offering 80 PLUS Platinum and Cybenetics Platinum certification with efficiency reaching up to 94.3%. It boasts semi-passive, zero-RPM cooling using a 140mm Pure Wings 3 fan that remains silent under low to moderate loads and runs briefly after load drops to reduce noise and component wear.
Fully compliant with ATX 3.1 and PCIe 5.1 standards, the PSU includes two 12V-2×6 cables with 90° angled connectors, each capable of delivering up to 600W, along with three PCIe 6+2-pin connectors.
Internally, it uses a half-bridge LLC topology with synchronous rectification and DC/DC conversion, powered by a single high-performance 12V rail rated at 100A, while fully modular flat black cables simplify cable management and improve overall build aesthetics.
Pure Power 13 M 1200W
On the other hand, the Pure Power 13 M 1200W features 80 PLUS Gold certification and efficiency of up to 93.5% while equipped with a semi-passive, temperature-controlled 120mm be quiet! fan that remains nearly silent at low to moderate loads and delivers very quiet active cooling under heavier workloads.
Built on a proven LLC, SR, and DC/DC topology, the PSU provides stable power delivery and precise voltage regulation. Fully compliant with ATX 3.1 and PCIe 5.1 standards, it includes a 12V-2×6 connector capable of supplying up to 600W, along with four PCIe 6+2-pin connectors for broad GPU compatibility. A single 100A 12V rail also ensures consistent power output, while fully modular cabling simplifies installation and keeps system builds tidy.
Pricing and Availability
Set to launch on 27 January and 10 February, the new be quiet! Power Zone 2 1200W and Pure Power 13 M 1200W will be available at a price of US$269.90 and US$229.90 respectively.
