Getting a new psu for my HP G5225uk [ Edited ]

[Gowmaster]

hi guys im looking for a 400W-450W psu out therethat supports pci-e and its also within my budget which is £50, all suggestions are consider and welcome, also im looking into a silent one, good enough for any of the ATI raden 5xxx series.

also if there is a 500W within my budget then its welcome too, but i highly doubt there is a good psu like that out there for less than £50, if im wrong then please, link it up.

im actually checking this one out: http://www.play.com/PC/PCs/4-/10136881/CiT-650U-650W-PSU-Power-Supply-Unit-Gold/Product.html, any comments about it could help me out a lot.

here is a link in-case you need to know something about my system -  http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02582387&cc=uk&dlc=en&lc=en&jumpid=reg_R1002_UK...

Hi again Gowmaster,

Looks like you made your mind to go with upgrading the PS as well, good for you

First 400W-450W is not good enough for all ATI Radeon 5xxx series, each card has its own specifications and power supply requirements, 

sound you have something in your mind require between 400-500w

lets start from here, IS THE PLAY.COM IS YOUR ONLY SOURCE TO BUY? coz the one you mentioned is not familiar, but it has a good review.

Just make sure it will fit in your case

This one is installed in my pc HP p6230f with Radeon HD 6770 now,  http://www.play.com/PC/PCs/4-/16686773/Corsair-CMPSU-500CX-500W-PSU-Power-Supply/Product.html?search...

its within your budget, cti more cheaper but I have no idea about the quality, coarsair makes really good PS

[Gowmaster]

Well play.com is pretty popular here in the uk, still i also checked pc world, i don't know any other trustable sources to buy components from.

if you know any trustable sources to buy em from, then pm me it, if possible.

looks like they are good source coz they cary ocz and corsair PS

As I told you, looks not familiar??? hope some one here know about it

PS is one of the most important part in you case, it must be good quality , manufacture who make good quality are, corsair, antec, ocz etc....

some power supply does not deliver the same advertised wattage because of the quality

check the one from http://www.ebuyer.com

What video card you are going to buy???

[Gowmaster]

The Sapphire ATI Radeon HD 5570

Btw this one should be good enough to run it right?

The HD 5570 consume 43 W I can assure you the 300 PS is enough for this card, but we have to stick with the ATI specs, ( dont know what ATI always go higher) the 430 is more than enough for you, ebuyer is specialist in pc hardware like neweg, and have really good prices and quality

Before buying any power supply, take out your original PS ,check its dimensions length, width and depth to figure which one to buy.
