be quiet! Dark Power Pro 14 IO 1300W 80+ Titanium PSU ATX 3.1
The be quiet! Dark Power Pro 14 IO 1300W 80+ Titanium PSU ATX 3.1 is designed for extreme-performance gaming PCs, enthusiast builds, professional workstations and heavily overclocked systems. It delivers 1300W of continuous power with ATX 3.1 compliance, native PCIe 5.1 12V-2×6 connectivity and software-controlled cooling via the be quiet! IO Center app, giving builders precise visibility and control over power delivery and fan behaviour.
Why this product
80 PLUS & Cybenetics Titanium certified
Efficiency reaches up to 94.9% at 230V, reducing wasted heat and cutting long-term energy costs compared with Gold or Platinum-rated units.
Dual native 12V-2×6 PCIe 5.1 connectors
Two on-board 12V-2×6 connectors each support up to 600W, providing up to 1200W combined — no adapters needed for the latest high-draw GPUs.
Software monitoring via be quiet! IO Center
Real-time dashboards show efficiency, fan speed and power draw, and a built-in cost calculator estimates energy expenses over time. Cooling mode and rail configuration can also be switched in software.
Switchable single-rail or multi-rail operation
The default six-rail configuration can be switched to a single massive 12V rail through the IO Center app, giving overclockers maximum current headroom without opening the case.
135mm Silent Wings 4 fan with semi-passive mode
The fan measures just 8.5 dB(A) at 10% load and can be set to stop entirely during light loads, resuming automatically when thermals demand it.
10-year warranty with premium capacitors
Japanese capacitors rated to 105°C back a full decade of manufacturer coverage, supported by seven hardware protection circuits.

- ATX 3.1 standard — fits standard ATX cases and is backward compatible with ATX 2.x motherboards.
- PCIe 5.1 GPUs — two native 12V-2×6 connectors supply up to 600W each without requiring an adapter cable.
- Previous-generation GPUs — six 6+2-pin PCIe connectors support all current and recent graphics cards.
- Dual-CPU or HEDT platforms — ships with both a 4+4-pin and an 8-pin CPU connector to serve boards requiring two EPS feeds.
- IO Center software support requires the included USB 2.0 9-pin cable connected to a motherboard header; monitoring and rail-switching features are unavailable without this connection.
- Dimensions are 200 × 150 × 86 mm — verify case PSU clearance, particularly in compact ATX enclosures, before purchasing.
Best for
- High-end GPU builds: dual native 12V-2×6 connectors deliver up to 1200W combined to PCIe 5.1 graphics cards without adapters.
- Overclockers: software-switchable single-rail mode maximises available 12V current, and 1300W continuous / 1400W peak headroom supports heavily overclocked CPUs and GPUs simultaneously.
- Noise-sensitive workstations: the fan measures 8.5–8.7 dB(A) at light-to-medium loads, and semi-passive mode stops it entirely when thermals allow.
- Power-efficiency conscious builders: up to 94.9% efficiency at 230V lowers electricity consumption and operating temperatures versus lower-rated supplies.
- Long-term investments: a 10-year warranty backed by 105°C-rated Japanese capacitors suits builders who do not want to replace their PSU for a decade.
Trade-offs
- Mid-range or budget builds: a 1300W supply is over-specified for systems that will never approach this output level, and the cost premium is not recovered in efficiency savings on lighter loads.
- Small-form-factor cases: the 200 × 150 × 86 mm body does not fit SFX or SFX-L PSU bays.
- Builders who prefer not to use companion software: rail-switching and fan-mode configuration require the be quiet! IO Center app and the 9-pin USB header connection.
- Systems needing more than two PCIe 5.1 12V-2×6 connectors: only two native 12V-2×6 connectors are included; additional PCIe 5.1 devices would require adapters from the six 6+2-pin cables.
The be quiet! Dark Power Pro 14 IO 1300W 80+ Titanium Power Supply is engineered for extreme-performance gaming PCs, enthusiast builds, professional workstations and heavily overclocked systems. Delivering 1300W of continuous power with ATX 3.1 compliance and native PCIe 5.1 12V-2×6 connectivity, it provides the performance required by the latest high-end processors and graphics cards. Advanced digital control, premium Japanese capacitors and integrated be quiet! Silent Wings cooling combine exceptional electrical stability with remarkably quiet operation.
Dark Power Pro 14 IO 1300W features a high-performance heat sink design with an integrated fan that can be configured in the be quiet! IO Center software. Active and semi-passive cooling can be selected with the be quiet! IO Center software.
The Dark Power Pro 14 IO 1300W is the first be quiet! PSU with smart software control via the be quiet! IO Center. It lets you switch between Multi Rail and Single Rail modes and choose semi passive or active fan settings. The dashboard shows real-time data for efficiency, fan speed and power usage. A cost calculator estimates your energy expenses over time. With this blend of power and insight, it sets a new standard for intelligent PSU control.
The Dark Power Pro 14 IO 1300W gives full control over cooling and performance. Choose between a balanced active mode for constant, efficient airflow, or a smart semi-passive mode where the fan stops during light loads. When things heat up, the Silent Wings fan powers on seamlessly to deliver the cooling the system needs.
Dark Power Pro 14 IO 1300W is particularly suitable for overclocking. With the be quiet! IO Center software, it is possible to manually switch between multi-rail and single-rail mode. This gives full overclocking control, from the default six 12V-rail mode to the alternative massive single-rail operation.
Dark Power Pro 14 IO 1300W is certified with 80 PLUS® Titanium and Cybenetics Titanium for a stunning energy efficiency rating of up to 94.9%. This provides lots of benefits for a high-end system, including less power consumption and an overall cooler and quieter operation.
Dark Power Pro 14 IO 1300W is an ATX 3.1 PSU and comes with both native integration of two 12V-2x6 connectors for next-generation PCIe 5.1 graphics cards and 4 PCIe 6+2-pin connectors for support of all current-gen GPUs. Nothing less than the very best fan of be quiet! cools Dark Power Pro 14 IO 1300W. Being integrated directly into the heat sink, this high-end fan is immune to vibrations. A 6-pole fan motor and fluid-dynamic bearing ultimately make for exceptionally long lifetime and minimal power consumption.
