Super Talent's Atomic Juice 700W
More talent than OJ?

Known more for memory and solid-state hard drives, Super Talent is the latest PC component maker to jump into the power supply market. They've done so with a new brand—Atomic Juice—that sounds a whole lot better than Super Talent as far as we're concerned. The first Atomic Juice PSUs are available in 600 and 700W capacities, and we have the latter on the bench today.

Atomic Juice PSUs were announced a few months ago, and they're still relatively scarce online. We could only find a few vendors selling the units, with the 700W model running around $125.

When compared with some of the other PSUs in this round-up, the Atomic Juice is relatively simple fare. Really, this is a standard power supply, although one that's been dressed up a little with blue paint and orange lighting that comes on when the unit is powered up.

A 120mm fan mounted at the base of the unit handles cooling, pushing exhaust air through vents located at the rear. Cables are neatly sheathed, as well. So all the basic checkboxes have been ticked.

The Atomic Juice's 5V line delivers nearly perfect DC voltage, but the 12V rail trends a little high. Still, even its greatest deviation from 12V is well within the PSU's tolerances for this rail.

Ripple isn't as low as we saw with PC Power's Turbo-Cool, but it's still very competitive with the other PSUs in this round-up.

Unfortunately, efficiency is not, at least under heavier loads. The Atomic Juice starts out well enough, boasting a whopping 88.5% efficiency with a 25% load. By the time we reach its limits, however, efficiency drops to just 77%. That's by no means horrible, but even at 75% load, this PSU's efficiency is under 80%.
