Hey guys, I was just playing on my computer when I heard a fizz sound like something shorting out, and the computer died. I assumed it was a powercut or something, but pressing the reset and power buttons does nothing. Any way I'm guessing that my next port of call is to buy a new PSU and test that out. Does anyone know of any PSUs that'd be suitable for my rig.

Sony AW-G170AB2 18x DVD±RW x12 Ram Dual Layer DVD-Writer - (Black)
Asrock Conroe945G-DVI (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR2 Motherboard
Intel Core 2 DUO E6300 "LGA775 Allendale" 1.86GHz (1066FSB) - OEM
GeIL 2GB (2x1GB) PC2-5300C4 667MHz Value DDR2 Dual Channel Kit
GeIL 2GB (2x1GB) PC2-5300C4 667MHz Value DDR2 Dual Channel Kit
OcUK ATI Radeon HD 3850 Pro 512MB GDDR3 TV-Out/Dual DVI (PCI-Express)
Seagate Barracuda 7200.9 160GB ST3160811AS SATA-II 8MB Cache - OEM
Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro CPU Cooler (Socket LGA775) £0.00 1
Antec NSK6500 Super Midi Tower Case - 430W PSU

As you can see all of this was running on the 430W PSU that came with the case.

Also is there any chance that it could simply be a blown fuse in the power cable?

Thanks in advance
