Get a cheap n basic EVGA 430w or 500w PSU.

SF is exceptionally good, most of the latest EVGA PSUs use that platform and are absolutely awesome when it comes to value for money

What a pointless answer. You don't even know OP's components or his budget, all he asked was how good Super Flower PSUs are.

Good point - not familiar with the brand, so I assumed that it was like a Logisys.

A Super flower Golden Green HX as an example, is far better than any low end EVGA unit.

Like I said above :D

Rosewill Capstone is Super Flower Golden Green

Rosewill Capstone is Super Flower Golden Green

Both are quite good. Leadex is class leading, and Golden Green is an excellent budget platform.

They're very good and reliable PSUs, highly respected in this community. It's a shame that they're not available here...

Yeah I am aware of that. We don't have Rosewill over here in UK so I was just stating the ones we have, which is the Super Flower Golden Green HX.

I wish I could buy a Super Flower Leadex in the US. They have the beautiful light up crystal sockets...

I believe you recommended the EVGA Supernova G2/P2 a few times correct? If so, Super Flower is the actual manufacturer of those units

Yeah... It was early and excuses.... I knew that they were made by them but derp. 

 

I like the look for the EVGA B/G/P/T units more though.

As long as you stick with the gen 2 versions of all of them. So much better than the gen 1 versions.
