be quiet! Pure Power 13 M 1000W ATX v3.1 PSU Review

Hold Up Time

The hold-up time exceeds 22 ms, and the power OK signal is accurate, but it is only 1ms away, which is super tight!

Inrush Current

The inrush currents are low.

Leakage Current

Leakage current refers to the small amount of current that flows through an insulating material or a semiconductor device when it is ideally supposed to be non-conductive. It is typically seen in electronics, such as transistors, capacitors, and insulators, where the current leaks due to imperfections or unintended pathways, even when the device is “off.”

Leakage current in power circuits is an alternating current flowing through the earthing conductor caused mainly by the EMC filter’s Y capacitors (Cy). The more Y capacitors, the higher the leakage current can be!

The IEC 62368-1, which replaces the IEC 60950 OFF (Office Equipment) and IEC 60065 TRON (Electronics, entertainment), defines the limits for maximum leakage (touch) current.

  • Normal Condition: Maximum touch current = 3.5 mA
  • Single Fault Condition: Maximum touch current = 10 mA

The leakage current is low.

Timings

The PSU supports Alternative Low Power Modes.

  1. The PowerZone has relatively loud transformer noise, even in standby. You can hear it from the next room. Otherwise, it’s electrically quiet — no coil whine or other weird stuff — but the base hum is quite loud. What about this one?

    1. Can you recommend a power supply that’s completely silent, even in standby? I’ve tested a few and ended up sticking with the PowerZone 2 because it’s a good all-rounder and gets a lot of things right. But that low hum or faint squeal drives me crazy. Every morning I wake up thinking, “Damn, I forgot to switch off the power strip again before going to bed
