Going to buy a X800GTO

So what would be a good Power supply unit, i was looking at these 2:

Hiper HPU-4K580-MK Type R 580W Modular ATX2.2 PSU - Black UV (CA-005-HP) - Price: £54.95 (£64.57 Including VAT at 17.5%)

or

Seasonic S12 430W Silent ATX2.0 Power Supply (CA-000-SS) - Price: £39.95 (£46.94 Including VAT at 17.5%)

The Hiper seems a bit more appealing due to the Wire's sleeving, not sure what type of sleeving comes with the Seasonic, shall have to do some research...

whats ** view on those two power supplys....
 
Aviod the Hiper.

Seasonic does not have sleeving, the wires are twisted to help make it a little more neat.

I would reccomend the FSP Bluestorm 500W, its sleeved and a great performer. Looks as though it will suit your needs better.
 
Get the - Enermax Liberty 620W ELT620AWT ATX2.2 Modular SLI Compliant PSU (CA-024-EN) Price: £84.95 (£99.82 Including VAT at 17.5%)

Brilliant bit of kit, modular too, so nice and tidy. I have and Im delighted with it, and it has a very good reputation also. :D

EDIT:

Oh just noticed your budget, maybe a cheaper Enermax then?

For your PC & with the X800GTO (very good card for the price btw), the Seasonic S12 430W would be more than enough. Have seen A64 rigs with X1800XT cards run on these & they would require far more power.
 
You could also think about the Enermax 400w modular which is within your budget and powerful enough for your system from a good solid brand.

The OCZ 450w modular looks to have fairly decent specifications and price but I haven't heard anything about it, maybe someone else can shed more light on its qualities or lack of them?
