Enermax Liberty 620w Certified for dual-card use.

Enermax Noisetaker 600w Certified for dual-card use.

Very quiet. Extremely good psu's both.

You can't get better.

Both on Scan. Both in stock.

Both will handle a heavy load. Good amp rating on the 12v's as well.

Both standard ATX dimensions.

www.scan.co.uk

Not sure about paypal but I believe so, just have a look at the link.

He's right, Enermax does make excellent PSU's. I ordered the 620W Liberty, but was told they didn't have it in stock, so I bought the Infiniti 650W instead. Looks great, runs quietly and churns out power at 85% efficiency.

Thanks to Alex for the recommendation, it looks as though my "restarting computer" woes are now gone.
