Will be powering the following:

Intel i5 750 (OC to 3.6GHz)
Gigabyte GA-P55-UD3
2x4GB Corsair XMS 3
MSI 7850 2GB twin FRZR OC
Four Hard drives; two are WD Green, 1 Samsung F3 and 1 WD Red
2 SSD's, samsung evo and crucial m4

Leaning towards the EVGA one atm because of the 10 year warranty.....

Yeah that or the Superflower

A good 550W psu would be enough for your spec. A 5 year warranty on the Superflower is still pretty decent considering the price

YOUR BASKET
1 x SuperFlower Golden Green HX 550W "80 Plus Gold" Power Supply - Black £55.99
Total : £55.99 (includes shipping : ).

I would buy the EVGA, for the warranty. PSU tends to be the one item I keep for a long time. Plus its had brilliant reviews all round!

Who keeps a psu for 10 years ?

Anyway 750W is a bit OTT for a 7850 and i5 cpu.

Good bang for buck though..and a top quality unit too

Thanks for the feedback so far and the extra suggestion

Really wanting a full modular PSU! You will soon see why

Also wouldn't mind having a bit more juice for future proofing, think I will be moving to a new CPU etc. come xmas time (all depending on game requirements....)

If you want the headroom, then go for the EVGA. It is made by Superflower anyway

Ordered the EVGA SuperNova G2 750W!

Thanks again!
