Sure this gets asked every week but here goes; of PSU's listed what brand would most of you buy regardless of some having 70w on another etc and so on. System to be used on wont be that power intensive but will require a stable PSU in the £45 to £60 range.

*OCZ ModStream 450w ATX2.2 Power Supply

*Enermax Noisetaker 485W EG495AX-VE(G) SFMA ATX2.0 PSU

*Seasonic S12 430W Silent ATX2.0 Power Supply

*Antec TruePower 2.0 430W PSU

*FSP Sparkle AX500-A Blue Storm 500W ATX2.0 PSU

FSP 500w.

Out of those I would take either the FSP or seasonic, seasonic(£40 elsewhere) is quieter but the FSP is sleeved. The OCZ though is still a decent PSU and can be had for £30

I'd probably go for the Enermax because they have been quality for as long as I have been interested in the individual brands of hardware but any of the PSUs ought to be fine.
