    Great PSU but £3 more you can get the 850W version from Argos of all places!!!

    Complete overkilll for your current requirements but with 10 year warranty you're future proofed for a very long time if your needs should increase and it's well within budget.

    I know i couldn't believe it either!! £20 cheaper than most other places, at first I didn't think it was the much better G2 version but it is and as you say it's a mighty fine PSU. If I was in the market and £100 was my budget that's exactly where it would be going.

    I like the evga one but I don't fancy paying shipping to another country for rma. That would be almost half the cost of the psu. Unless evga have a UK rma base.
