New PSU suggestions please

Hi all, my PSU died on me today (mobo died about 4 weeks back also

) and I need help selecting a new one.

I have:
AMD Athlon™ 64 X2 6400+ 3.2GHz Processor
Gigabyte MA770-UD3 mobo
512MB NVIDIA® GeForce™ 8800 GT
500GB Serial ATA 3 Gb/s, 7,200 RPM with 16MB Cache & NCQ
Extreme-Performance 800MHz Low-Latency DDR2 SDRAM - 4GB - 4 x 1024MB

The old psu was a 1000w but I doubt I need that much to be honest

Thanks in advance

And that'll def carry me in terms of load (I game a lot :cool:

) and have all the correct connections etc?

How many PCI-E connectors does your GPU have.

Just the one, she's getting on a bit in GFX card terms

No probs

Used one in a friends PC a few months back and had no complaints.

I have one in another Pc, and they're a very solid little PSU
