New PSU needed

NightmareXX · 23 Feb 2009 at 22:55

Long story short, my 2 year old PSU FSP FX700-GLN, went pop and thankfully my money was well spent and so it didn't take anything else with it.

I need a new PSU, system in sig which draws about 350W max on load. I'd like it to be modular if possible but I don't want to go spending a fortune on something I won't use much.

If I read that correctly, I can either have 2x 6pin PCI-E or 1 8pin PCI-E?

Well that'll be first on the list. What about those PSU's with the flat, black modular cables? I've always liked those.

There are some PSU's where the modular cables are flat and coated in black plastic instead of the netting that's around that one.
