The Be Quiet! modular psu seems to be good. The sleeving doesn't look very good, but it's an indication that they used super flower as their oem which is a good thing. Super Flower is up there with seasonic and fsp

I'm wanting a new psu that has a stronger 12v rail. I currently have a corsair cx500m. I'm looking at these psu's. Is there any difference between the l8 and the pure power apart from the extra 50w and modular?

I've also heard the antec psu's are really solid but i'm not sure about going to the top my budget for a none modular one

no your fine. A good 550w power supply could run pretty much any single card setup.

I think i'm going to go with the be quiet. It still has a 5 year warranty so i don't think it'll be less reliable than the antec. Its also modular which i think will help. Thanks for the help guys!
