520w will be enough but have a look at the 620w.

its only £20 difference so ill probs go for the 620 if its close. but i wont be upgrading any time soon so if the 520 would do it that would be nice

the 620HX would be better for cable managment as the TX just has loads of cables hanging out of the box all over the place where as the HX you connect to the power supply what cables you need.

no, he means the non-modular version has cables hanging out
