I'm not sure if this has been stated, but I believe that the most powerful Sith would've been Darth Nihilus, Lord of Hunger.
Yes, his boss fight was pretty laughably easy. But, in lore he has the ability to destroy entire planets just because of his hunger for the force. The boss fight wasn't difficult because The Exile was such a wound in the force that his, eh, appetite, wasn't as appealing as it was beforehand.
In terms of raw power, Nihilus wins hands down.
