be quiet! Power Zone 2 1000W ATX 3.1 (2025) Review

The Power Zone 2 1000W ships in a dark box highlighting an image of the power supply on the front. I appreciate the minimalist design with only an 80 Plus Logo and a Cybenetic Platinum certification showing top left. Good to see be quiet! adopting the new Cybenetics standards – they are the ones that make the most technical sense now.

The rear of the box has more detail on the ‘developed in Germany' badge along with some key specifications and a power output table.

Inside the box are the accessories along with some literature, a power cable, cable ties and mounting screws.

The modular cables are all ribbon style, for ease of routing.

The cable quality is good and there are no in cable capacitors either. The gauge varies between 15-18AWG for the SATA and EPS12V cables. With the ATX connector a 16-22AWG gauge. The 12+4 Pin PCIe connector is 600mm long with a 600 watt rating and its 16-26AWG Gauge.
