Okay, so my current specs are;
Gigabyte H61M DS2 Motherboard
Intel i5 3570k CPU
XFX Radeon R9 270x
8GB DDR3 1333MHz RAM
Alpin 700w PSU


I need a new PSU due to the current one being unreliable. I have a few things I would like my new PSU consist of, such as, 2 6pin PCI-E connectors, SATA, non modular, I would like the wires to be flat if possible, for better cable management, as well as there being black netting covering the wires, again for easier cable management. Thanks in advance.

EDIT: The Budget it £40-£60

You need the PSU from 500W-600W, which will be more than enough for single R9 270X.
And here are some of them. XFX is better than the EVGA.

If you want better cable management go with a modular PSU.

Silverpower 650W: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B007PZEZUY/ref=s9_simh_se_p147_d0_i4?pf_rd_m=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&pf_rd_s=auto-no-results-center-1&pf_rd_r=0VKY4VK3NGD0FDD3BWYX&pf_rd_t=301&pf_rd_p=240112507&pf_rd_i=silverpower650w
