Excellent power output, Three Year Warranty, Very quiet fan, Good Price, 80Plus Standard,
This power supply would be ideal for anyone looking to build multi CPU core gaming / workstation system with two moderately powered video cards. This power supply is SLi certified for up to a single 9800GX2. There are an adequate amount of power conn...
Extremely quiet operation, 3Year Warranty, 80PLUS certified, No complaints on it's performance
I wasn't overly keen on the internal heatsink design, it seems very minimal compared to most power supplies
If you're looking to buy a solid PC power supply but don't need high wattage requirements or a triple digit price tag, then the Tuniq Potency series might just be a superb contender to look into. I was left very surprised at how quiet this power s...

Low voltage dip at load, Excellent ripple characteristics, Quality casing and sleeved cables, Quiet, Excellent price
Poor internal heatsink design
So there you have it! We think that the Tuniq Potency 550W is an excellent budget PSU. It has exhibited low voltage droop and excellent ripple mechanics under load conditions. Better yet, we found it for about $55 after rebate (Newegg has a $25 MIR ri...
Looks good, Quiet PSU, 6-pin and 6-pin/8-pin PCIe connectors, Provides ample power for older gaming systems
5v rail runs a little wild on the noise/ripple test, Not sure if its SLI Certified or if Tuniq has just added a sticker to the box for fun.
The Tuniq Potency 550W PSU is an adequate PSU for many systems today, but its certainly not for extreme gaming rigs. It is meant to be an upgrade to the crappy little "400W" PSU that shipped with your cheap imported case. It seems to be pretty soli...
Experienced a max of .08% voltage drop in testing, 80Plus Efficiency, Incredible price
Heatsinks could be nicer, but didnt appear to affect the performance, Some may find a lack of Molex and SATA connectors
Im pretty satisfied with the testing, the Tuniq Potency 550 experienced a mere .08% voltage drop with a decent gaming card, less with a pair of mainstream cards in CrossFire. Im sure that I would have experienced much more drop with a real power ea...
For just £55 the Tuniq Potency 550W is a good deal to be had. Although it doesn’t boast the efficiency and stability of the more expensive PSU’s we tested, its results are perfectly fine for a stable and efficient power supply.My only rea...
This is a very nice PSU and would make a very good addition to a low cost but relatively high powered system, the PSU is certified as compatible with a 9800GX2 and SLi capable so it should cope with most systems without issue. It is available for ~$80...
Excellent all around DC quality, Active PFC, Good selection of connectors and adapters, Quiet operation, 100,000 hour MTBF, Three year warranty...
Failure to meet the 80 Plus specification...
Environmental Factors: With 80 PLUS certification, on which I have a few things to say later, and a high power factor, the Tuniq Potency will play a small part in cutting your energy bills. The packaging material usage is minimal, but I think this is ...
