The Raijintek CRATOS 1000 computer power supply provides modern gaming and work setups with a stable 1000W of power. It is 80 PLUS Gold certified, confirming a high energy conversion efficiency of 90% at typical loads. Full support for ATX 3.1 and PCIe 5.1 standards makes it ideal for use with high-power components. Its compact 140mm depth makes installation easy, even in cases with limited internal space. This ATX 3.1 power supply handles the high energy demands of graphics cards and processors.
When choosing a suitable PC power supply, the key parameter besides the form factor is its power output. This indicates the maximum number of Watts the power supply can continuously deliver to the computer's components. It's a good idea to use an online calculator to determine the optimal power based on your chosen components.
The total power of 1000W is supplied by a strong +12V rail, which covers the energy requirements of powerful graphics cards and processors. The topology with DC/DC converters contributes to precise voltage regulation, and the 80 PLUS Gold certification confirms that the power supply effectively reduces heat loss and electricity consumption. This results in lower running costs and lower temperatures inside the computer case.
Full compatibility with ATX 3.1 and PCIe 5.1 standards prepares this modular power supply for future generations of hardware. The ATX 3.1 specification defines the power supply's ability to handle high power spikes for short periods. It includes a native 16-pin 12V-2x6 connector, which supplies the graphics card with up to 600W without needing additional adaptors. Its compact 140mm depth also leaves more room for cabling. The flat profile of the cables further simplifies organisation and contributes to better airflow in the case, as it doesn't obstruct natural circulation. The result is a tidier internal layout.
Internal components are the foundation of reliable operation. This 80 PLUS Gold power supply uses exclusively Japanese capacitors rated for an operating temperature of 105°C. Thanks to the Zero RPM function, the fan remains idle under low load and only starts up when a set temperature or power draw is exceeded, thereby maintaining completely silent operation during normal work. These components maintain stable capacitance and low internal resistance even under long-term high loads. This allows them to effectively filter voltage ripple and noise, delivering clean power to the connected components. The result is a longer lifespan and stable performance for the entire computer system.
The safety of connected components is crucial. That's why the power supply includes a complete set of electrical protections, which include over-voltage, under-voltage, over-current, overload, short-circuit, and over-temperature protection. These mechanisms continuously monitor electrical values and immediately disconnect the power supply if any non-standard operating conditions are detected. This comprehensive set of protections actively prevents damage not only to the power supply itself, but especially to sensitive components such as the processor, graphics card, and motherboard.
The 80 Plus certification was created to objectively assess the efficiency of PC power supplies. It gives users a simple and clear way to compare different models. In the European market (where 230V is used), there are six levels of 80 Plus certification, each with set requirements for PC power supplies. Higher energy efficiency primarily means lower energy consumption.

|---|---|---|---|
| 80 PLUS | 82% | 85% | 82% |
| 80 PLUS Bronze | 85% | 88% | 85% |
| 80 PLUS Silver | 87% | 90% | 87% |
| 80 PLUS Gold | 90% | 92% | 89% |
| 80 PLUS Platinum | 92% | 94% | 90% |
| 80 PLUS Titanium | 94% | 96% | 94% |
