This is why you should not get an FX CPU for ANY scenario other than rendering on a budget http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/286142-fx-8350-r9-290-psu-requirements/?p=3892901 | http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/266481-an-issue-with-people-bashing-the-fx-cpus/?p=3620861

They are both acceptable, entry-level units. It seem that you can get the Antec True Power Classic 550 in the same price range as the CX600. http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/part/antec-power-supply-tp550c

It's a Seasonic G / S12G unit internally. It's the best build unit mentioned thus far and it will be able to power your system.

Thoughts on the antec high current 620W?????

 

It's a Seasonic S12II / M12II Bronze unit internally (lower wattage 380-620w units). It's also an entry level unit but is build a bit better than the EVGA B and Corsair CX.

 

Where are you buying from, btw? It seems that the Antec HCG-620 / M is a little over £65. The Corsair CS550M / 650M is in the same price range, and since it utilized DC-DC, it would provide better voltage stability. If modularity is not a concern, the Antec Truepower Classic 650w that I had mentioned may be a better deal. http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/part/antec-power-supply-tp650c

The Antec TP-650C that I keep mentioning is cheaper than the 550w variant interestingly enough. It's also £59.98 shipped - just within your budget.

http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00HGFYGOS/?tag=pcp0f-21 (look under "Other Sellers on Amazon")

 

From what I can see, that's the best unit at that price point on Amazon UK and will give you plenty of to power your system with overclocks. I would definitely go with that over the EVGA B, Corsair CX, and Antec HCG-620.
