Which SFX PSU (Kolink or Be Quiet)?

[Lither]

I'm looking for a SFX PSU around £50 for my HTPC (Intel Pentium G4600, GT 1030, 8GB RAM, 250GB SSD and 8TB HDD), will 300-350W be enough for the system?

If so, should I go for the Kolink (is it a good brand?) or £20 more for the Be Quiet but 50W less?

My basket at Overclockers UK:

• 1 x Kolink KL-SFX350 350W 80 Plus Bronze Efficient SFX Power Supply= £36.95
• 1 x be quiet! SFX Power 2 300W '80 Plus Bronze' SFX Power Supply= £56.99

Total: £104.44 (includes shipping: £10.50)​

kolink is an unknown brand at the moment. it's the in-house brand of caseking (owners of ocuk)
ocuk uses kolink psus in their standard builds, but how good it is? not too sure as no one's really tested their lower end psus before.

the sfx on the other hand, are reasonably decent, and good value

tl;dr: which one of the two i'd get. the kolink sfx easily. cheaper and also decently reviewed.

I have looked at the TweakPC and JonnyGURU review and it seems decent for the price especially for SFX so I went ahead and bought it.

There is a customer review for one of there psu that says it lasted 2 hours before going bang.

Yeah, I saw that review in the other thread but there are some positive reviews in there too but it can't be worse than the current Channel Well PSU that I'm using that I pulled from a PC bought at a high street shop.
