The two Molex plugs sit on the second SATA and Molex cable, so the molex row takes that cable's 510 mm to its first plug.9Reviewhwbusters.com/psus/be-quiet-pure-power-13-m-850w-atx-v3-1-psu-reviewRead 14 October 2026Technical specifications: 2x EPS (2 cables), 4x PCIe 6+2 pin (3 cables), 1x PCIe 12+4 pin (600W), 6x SATA (2 cables), 2x 4-pin Molex (1 cable). The modular panel has nine sockets, including a native 12V-2x6 header. The review lists an MSRP of 150 USD excluding VAT but names no region, so no launch price is stored.

1.76kg(3.9 lb)9Reviewhwbusters.com/psus/be-quiet-pure-power-13-m-850w-atx-v3-1-psu-reviewRead 14 October 2026Technical specifications: 1.76 kg (3.88 lb). The review does not say whether cables are included. Retailers list 2.62 kg, which is most likely the packed weight. The same review site gives 1.75 kg for the 1000W model, which is a 10 g difference in the wrong direction and is probably a weighing tolerance.
