could anyone reccomend a good reliable 600 watt + psu. this is for my nephew, his second hiper 580w blew up today, but he' tested his mobo ram cpu etc on a friends psu so all should be fine. preferably a modular psu thanks in advance

Corsair HX 620W

If on a tight budget, then the baby brother (here) will handle any single GFX based system fine

thanks for the reply , id say 620w would be ideal he runs a lot of hard drives in raid and dual 7800 gt gfx cad in sli, plus its within his budget. once again thanks.

Got the 400w Liberty & can't fault it. But these Corsair's are something else

ive had the noisetaker for 2 and a half years now, it used to power an a64 4000 2gb ram and twin 7900gt extremes in sli, think it cost me 80 quid, plus a friend sleeved all the cables for 20 quid and its powering my new c2d rig without any probs, incredible value for money
