People often associate the word “titan” with things that possess extreme qualities. The most famous example could be the RMS Titanic, which was the largest passenger steamship of her time. Other examples are the element titanium, which is admired for its tremendous tensile strength; and the insect Titanus giganteus, which is the largest beetle in the Amazon forest.

In all probability, based on the examples that were given, Huntkey appropriately chose the term “titan” to represent its latest line of high performance power supply units (PSUs). Coming with a maximum output power of either 560W or 650W, the Huntkey Titan series is designed to deliver remarkable performance to PC enthusiasts and server/workstation users. For our perusal, our friends from Kensonic Inc. sent us the 650W model.

First, inspecting the packaging, the HuntKey Titan 650W is supplied in a sturdy, black box where the PSU is wrapped in a bubble bag and firmly secured by Styrofoam panels for safe shipping.

While some manufacturers rarely bundle any items with their PSUs, apart from the basic manual and the AC power cord, HuntKey provides color-coded cable straps and screws as well.

The casing of the Titan 650W is painted with a shiny finish. The PSU’s 120mm fan is protected by a chrome-plated grill with the HuntKey logo engraved in the middle.

At the back, where you could find the power switch and power socket, the PSU’s internal components can be seen through the air vent. Aside from the large fan, the air vent is a relevant part of the PSU that lengthens the lifespan of the unit by dispersing heat outwards.

Another air vent found near the cable hole.

So this PSU's lifespan could be shorter at temperatures beyond 25⁰C.

What's the price of this PSU?

I saw from other sources that this PSU costs P4530.

If that's the case, I'd rather be buying an HEC PSU.
So the PSU's lifespan could be shorter at temperatures beyond 25⁰C. As far as I know, most PSUs, if not all, operate beyond that temp.
