Hi,

Having a problem with my PC where it randomly turns off, and it's getting to the point where I think it must be the PSU.

Spec is:

i5 760
GTX 470
ASUS P7P55D-E
Kingston HyperX Genesis Grey 8GB DDR3
OCZ GameXStream 700w
Windows 7 64 bit

I want a PSU that is reliable and powerful enough for my system. Cheaper the better at the moment.

I was thinking this?

What about the BeQuiet 600w on offer this week for £58:98p.

That seems good, any second opinions? Haven't used that brand before.

Also 600w is enough right?

Nothing wrong with BeQuiet psu's , I have six of them ranging from 500w to 850w.

I also have several OCZ's psu's, but, that's a good find RJC, nice psu OCZ for the price, better value than the BeQuiet one in my opinion.

Thanks, ordered the OCZ one.
