Cougar PowerX 550W Power Supply Review

Unboxing the Cougar PowerX 550W

We received the Cougar PowerX 550W unit supplied inside a small but sturdy cardboard box. The artwork on the box is dark and subtle, without too many bells and whistles.

The rear of the box is a small user’s manual, with a full list of the unit’s features, tables with the electrical specifications and number of cables, as well as charts on the efficiency and acoustics of the power supply, plus some minor stuff such as links and certification logos.

As expected from a unit of this class, the items provided with the PowerX hardly qualify as a bundle to begin with. Cougar supplies the bare essentials; an A/C power cable, four mounting screws and a black and white manual.
