Power supply recommendations please!

[spherrod]

Well, the time has come. The fans on my original 400W Power Supply that came with my case have failed and I am getting occasional crashes more and more frequently. Can you lovely people recommend a good make/model of Power Supply around the 400/450W rating? Antec is the one make which I keep seeing on reviews but I would like some second opinions as well.

I would like to get a top quality power supply that also has good fans to aid with system cooling - all ideas gratefully received!

Ultra X-Connect is an outSTANDING PSU at a very good price. Very very stable rails with lots of juice, and the fact that you can attatch/detatch power cables as you need/don't need them is great.

I'd personally get a 500w PSU just so you don't need to worry about power no matter what you stick in there later on.

If you like weird colors, there are plenty to choose from. Just search for "x-connect"

Thanks - should have put this in the original post but I am in the UK and Antec or Enermax seem to be the makes that I can easily get hold off

Fortron 530w is also an amazing value

Any ideas on this one?

I will be upgrading to a new machine in about 18 months (totally new build) so i want a good quality one but doesn't need to be anything over 400W for my current system. I can't seem to find Fortron at any of the suppliers in the UK that I normally use
