My PSU recently died, so I'm looking for a new..

Crossfire ready, semi-silent, preferred modular.

The setup is i5-2500k, 16GB Ram, 2x 5870.

I can recommend the Corsair PSU's. Very good and well built. Mine runs fine (in sig) and as people have said 650W upwards will be fine.

Semi-Modular:

Fully Modular:

I would recommend for going with a PSU that uses Japanese caps. Just for peace of mind that they aren't cheaper ones that may not last as long and could cause system instability.

Hope that helps,

What's your budget and do you have an size limitations?

Haven't really come up with a budget, but generally speaking, the cheaper the better, without compromising safety.

I'm buying a new case aswell, so I don't really have a clue, other than that it will be mounted in the bottom.

Bargain for the price.

YOUR BASKET
1 x XFX 850W XXX Edition Modular '80 Plus Silver' Power Supply £94.99
Total : £105.49 (includes shipping : £8.75).

I agree, I have looked on this already, and it surely is a contender.

My other PC have the AX750, and I am very happy with it, although it's on the more exspensive end, and since this is for my 2nd rig I can compromise a little more and go cheaper.

The TX is cheaper, so will consider it too, thanks :)
