CONCLUSION

    Just like with most power supply units released by be quiet! to date the Pure Power 13M 1000W performed extremely well during my tests both in terms of rail stability and noise levels (be quiet! fans have always done well here). FSP is among the top power supply manufacturers around, so this wasn’t really a surprise. What was a surprise is that they used Taiwanese capacitors and even though Taiwan leads the electronics industry in many things when it comes to capacitors Japanese ones have always been the top choice for users all over the globe (Chinsan capacitors however have a very good track record).

    Retailing currently for USD149.90 inside the USA (Amazon.com) and for 144.90Euros inside the EU (Amazon.de) the Pure Power 13 M 1000W power supply unit by be quiet! is priced very well. From rail stability and electrical efficiency to noise levels and price the Pure Power 13 M 1000W has it all, yes it may not be perfect but it’s certainly more than enough for our Golden Award.
