Product Information

Full details

The be quiet! Pure Power 13 M 850W PSU is designed for PC builders seeking a reliable, quiet, and future-proof power supply for modern and next-gen gaming rigs. Its key benefit is providing stable, efficient power with ATX 3.1 and PCIe 5.1 compliance, ensuring compatibility with the latest high-performance GPUs and CPUs. A potential caveat is that its semi-passive cooling might lead to slightly higher initial temperatures under very light loads before the fan engages.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is ATX 3.1 and why is it important?

ATX 3.1 is an updated standard for power supplies that focuses on improved power regulation, better handling of transient power spikes, and enhanced compatibility with high-performance components. It ensures your system remains stable even when components demand sudden bursts of power.

Does this PSU include all necessary cables for modern GPUs?

Yes, the Pure Power 13 M 850W includes both a PCIe 5.1 (12V-2x6) cable for the latest GPUs and standard PCIe 6+2 cables, offering broad compatibility.

How does the semi-passive cooling work?

The fan remains completely off during low to moderate workloads, providing silent operation. The fan only spins up when the internal temperature of the PSU reaches a certain threshold, ensuring quiet performance when not under heavy load.

Is this PSU suitable for overclocking?

Yes, the Pure Power 13 M features a strong single 12V rail and an LLC topology designed to deliver steady and well-regulated power, making it a reliable choice for systems with overclocked CPUs and GPUs.

How do I clean the PSU fan?

Ensure the PC is powered off and unplugged. Use a soft brush or compressed air to gently clean dust from the PSU's fan grille. Avoid direct contact with the fan blades.

What is Cybenetics Gold certification?

Cybenetics Gold is a certification that measures power supply efficiency across a wider range of real-world operating conditions and also considers noise levels. It indicates a high level of efficiency and quiet operation compared to basic 80 PLUS ratings.

Can I use this PSU for a dual-GPU setup?

While the 850W capacity is sufficient for many dual-GPU configurations, it's crucial to check the specific power requirements of your GPUs and other components. For extremely high-end dual-GPU setups, a higher wattage PSU might be recommended.

Troubleshooting

PSU does not power on

Verify that the power cord is securely plugged into both the PSU and a working wall outlet. Ensure the PSU's power switch is in the 'On' position. Double-check all internal cable connections to the motherboard and components.

System instability or random shutdowns

Ensure all power cables are firmly seated. Check if the PSU is supplying sufficient wattage for your components; an undersized PSU can cause instability. Monitor system temperatures to rule out overheating issues.

Excessive noise from the PSU

Under light loads, the fan may not spin, which is normal. If noise occurs under load, check for obstructions around the PSU fan. Ensure the PSU is not vibrating against the case. If the noise is abnormal (grinding, buzzing), contact support.

Component not detected after installation

Confirm that the correct power cables for that specific component (e.g., GPU, SSD) are plugged into both the PSU and the component. Ensure the component is properly seated on the motherboard or in its bay.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent compatibility with current and future high-end GPUs and CPUs due to ATX 3.1 and PCIe 5.1 support.
  • Quiet operation, especially during idle and moderate loads, thanks to the semi-passive fan.
  • High efficiency certified by Cybenetics Gold, leading to lower energy consumption and heat generation.
  • Stable and precise power delivery suitable for demanding systems and overclocking.
  • Durable and aesthetically pleasing fully sleeved cables.

Cons

  • Fan remains off at very low loads, which might result in slightly higher initial PSU temperatures before engagement.
  • The semi-passive nature might not be ideal for users who prioritize absolute silence even at the lowest power states.
  • 850W might be limiting for extremely high-end, multi-GPU configurations, though sufficient for most single-GPU builds.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Ensure your system is powered off and unplugged before installation. Connect the appropriate cables securely to the PSU and your motherboard, GPU, and other components. The modular design allows for connecting only the necessary cables, improving airflow. Refer to your motherboard and GPU manuals for specific power connector requirements.

Compatibility: This PSU is ATX 3.1 compliant and includes a PCIe 5.1 (12V-2x6) cable, ensuring compatibility with the latest CPUs and GPUs. It also comes with standard PCIe 6+2 cables for broader compatibility. Ensure your PC case has adequate space for an ATX-sized power supply.

Care: Keep the PSU's ventilation area clear of obstructions to ensure proper airflow. Periodically clean any dust buildup from the fan grille using a soft brush or compressed air (ensure the system is powered off and unplugged). Avoid exposing the PSU to excessive moisture or extreme temperatures.
