Tuniq Potency 550W PSU review

Packaging and Closer Look
Tuniq have gone for a simple and elegant black and white scheme with the packaging here, there ais a single picture of the PSU on the box itself but then again, it is a PSU, for most people it will be installed then largely forgotten about. Taking it out the box reveals a standard sized PSU finished in matt black with sleeved cables, as mentioned at the start of this review this isn't a modular PSU and it doesn't feature any fancy touches to make it appeal to those who like PC jewellery. The first and most pleasing thing to note is that there is a fairly substantial weight to the PSU, it is not a hard and fast rule but generally speaking a PSUs quality can be roughly gauged by the weight of it – nb if you find that manufacturers start putting iron filings into their PSUs to increase the weight that this guide no longer stands. The box also contains 1x kettle lead with UK plug, 4x screws for fitting the PSU, 10x cable ties and an extra molex splitter in case the 4x molex connectors from the PSU weren't enough for you. The PSU is an active PFC unit so there is no switch between 110/240V, it will do it automatically which means it would work either side of the Atlantic without issue.
