    Tagan EasyCon: Only worth considering if you'd benefit from the modular design. If you need to use more than three quarters of the cables you may as well buy one with captive leads. From personal experience it's very quiet, runs quite cool, though the 12v line is a little weak on mine (and it seems on a few others).

    Tagan 2Force: Never tried this but looks to have a slightly more powerful 12V rail and a good airflow design which doesn't rely on heated air rising from the CPU to cool it's internals.

    Seasonic S12: Very quiet, very efficient though for the money you'd expect a braided or shielded harness at the very least. I like Seasonic and I use them extensively at work as they're extremely reliable. Mind you, for another £10 you could get the 600w SLi version which would save you some hassle if you ever went for this or Crossfire.

    All three are good choices, I doubt you'll be unhappy with any that you buy
