Give me a moment to fix some things... @jamiecooper welcome to the forums and please remember to follow your threads :D I presume the budget is £750? I also presume this is for 1080p gaming.

how is the CX bad psu? its a good psu for casual builds

30 degree ambient temp or high will make it not start, shitty chinese caps rated at 85 deg operating temps instead of japanese 105 deg ones...etc

 

Corsair themselves say that it should be for basic builds only :P

Because when the end user decides to upgrade the rig (Which they may or may not do) the CX PSU wouldn't be the safest thing to put under a load from a gaming rig.
