Hey I have been having trouble with power supplies as I feel I have been cheeping out a bit but am now wanting to get a proper power supply with good power for my system. My GPU despite being overclocked to 1020Mhz from 950 doesn't go near it despite temps going just over 60 degrees so that is not the bottle neck and the same for my CPU. I think it is the power supply bottle-necking these components. My rig is:
i5-4690k o.c to 4.2Ghz at 1.13 V
8Gb of g-skill rip jaws 1666mhz ram at 1.5v
Asus z97-k
Sapphire dual-x r9 280 (non-x)
2 SSD's in raid 0
1 TB samsung HDD
My budget would be around £50-£70 and would prefer to buy from either amazon.co.uk or ebuyer.com but am open to other sites if the PSU is good. Thanks for any replies. Any input will be much appreciated.

Slightly over budget

Tier 2 PSU, good for your system.
 


Hi - If you can go a tad over (£71), this is an excellent PSU, gold efficiency and modular:

And yes, more than enough power even if you add drives, fans, etc.
