I need at least 500w of power. It needs to be a good reviewed model from somewhere like Jonny guru 

 

 

Many thanks and merry christmas

you shouldn't cheap out on your PSU. most important hardware of your PC.

I'm not trying to cheap out, I just want the best for my money. I want a semi or a fully modular PSU at a decent cost. I'm not going for poor brands, I'm looking at jonny guru and looking at the psu tiers!

Both are solid, budget indy / DC-DC regulated PSU.

 

Some of better quality and full modular units.

Yep, that EVGA is good! Also check to see if the G2 is cheaper because it is on occasion. Some people, like myself, don't like the flat cables in the GS. If I could do-over with buying my PSU I would have bought the G2 as my case and the EVGA GS' cables don't like each other.

Looking at the price again, the G2 and RMx I had suggested is within £2-5 of the GS. I would get one of those two instead.

I'd provided links to them in my other post.
