PSU is shorthand for power supply unit - the bit you plug into the wall that changes 120/240AC to 5v DC for the pine64. Is is your own, or is it the one that pine64 sold?
A lot of people recommend 5v 2A power supplies for boards like the pine64, and even the lower power Raspberry Pi, as they tend to keep the voltage stable, as a lot of them tend to drop down to 4.9v or lower pretty quickly, and with poor cables, it can easily drop down to 4.5v by the time it reaches the pine64, make it a very unhappy board!
