    I'm guessing you're looking at ebuyer, if so the look at the Be Quiet white special edition http://www.ebuyer.com/product/206053
    A good solid 600w psu, Modular cables and only £60

    As with most things YMMV, I run a Coolermaster RealPower M520 on a i7 rig and a M700 on other C2Q rig and both have been fine.

    I'm trying to decide between the Corsair and the BeQuiet! aswell...

    I think i'll probably end up opting for the Corsair though because I know Scan are reliable and also because of ScanInsure which is always nice to have.

    Everyone seems to recommened the Corsair also
