Key specifications

Advanced digital control for stable performance

The Dark Power Pro 13 uses fully digital control to monitor and adjust power delivery in real time, ensuring rock-solid voltage stability even under heavy loads. This precision helps protect sensitive components from power fluctuations and extends system longevity. The frameless fan concept also reduces turbulence, improving cooling efficiency while maintaining near-silent operation at typical loads.

Next-gen graphics card ready

With PCIe 5.0 compatibility and ATX 3.0 compliance, this PSU is built to handle the latest high-performance graphics cards, including models with 12VHPWR connectors. It provides clean, reliable power delivery for multi-GPU configurations and future-proofing your system against upcoming hardware demands. The 1400W peak capacity offers headroom for extreme overclocking or power spikes.

Quiet operation with intelligent cooling

Featuring a 13.5cm Fluid Dynamic Bearing (FDB) fan, the Dark Power Pro 13 operates at just 23.2 dB under normal conditions. The fan only spins up when needed, thanks to intelligent thermal management, keeping your system whisper-quiet during light workloads. This makes it perfect for silent builds where noise reduction is a priority.

Comprehensive protection and reliability

Built-in power protection features include over-current, over-power, over-voltage, overheating, short-circuit, and under-voltage safeguards. With a mean time between failures (MTBF) of 100,000 hours and a 10-year warranty, this PSU offers long-term reliability for mission-critical systems.
