    Thanks for all the input guys, I'll have a look at the Corsair. My current PSU already has rounded sheathed cables, but there are so many of them it's ridiculous. I do use rounded IDE cables, which have helped, but the modular PSU seems a logical thing to use.

    Corsair 620w here. Love it.

    Only issue is that theres little point it being modular because I have all the cables plugged into it anyway I like it though. Its quiet and reliable.

    So the tagan should be more than enough and &#163;10 cheaper

    That said the corsair will be better for future upgrades


    EDIT: and the 620w corsair is sooooo overkill for his specs it's stupid.
