Nothing wrong with BeQuiet, they are up with Corsair & XFX.

Stick with the BeQuiet.


TBH not heard that much about them who actually makes the BeQuiet? Only mentioned the other brands due to the great rep they have for psu.


Edit: Strange double post sorry :(
 
Don't skimp on your PSU get an Corsair,XFX or Antec. They tend to be most reliable.

Edit: Also the for a cpu cooler I recommend the below one over the Arctic Freezer Pro Rev 2. Its only a couple quid more and kicks the Arctics rear in performance.
cooler master hyper 212 plus cpu cooler

edit 2: also get
antec 100 one hundred ultimate gaming case - black

its £1 cheaper and is probably the best cases in the price range.

the bequiet should be fine. it's got decent 12v power, good efficiency and good technical reviews.

i like the antec too, the zalman is fine as well.

if you decide to go for the hyper 212+. might be of interest.
