I am not sure what PSU to go with. The estimated wattage is 437w, so I'd like a 500-650w PSU. Modular or semi-modular please. What would you recommend?

650 watts - Seasonic, XFX, Corsair HX, AX. Make your decision on one of these based on what is on sale or promo.

Ubrales :

Ubrales is right. Top brands right here. Just add Antex HCD and you're golden.

What else other than a Seasonic SSR-550RM?

Great deal on this XFX Pro 550W - £46.93 inc VAT

It isn't modular though.

The cheapest high quality PSU that is semi-modular seems to be
XFX 650W XXX Edition £62.98
