If you don't need so much power then this Superflower Leadex is a great choice

http://www.e-shop.gr/psu-super-flower-leadex-80-plus-gold-black-550w-p-PER.815794

though the 650W model doesn't seem much more http://www.e-shop.gr/psu-super-flower-leadex-gold-series-650w-sf-650f14mg-p-PER.811702

this 620W Antec HCGm is also a solid PSU http://www.e-shop.gr/psu-antec-high-current-gamer-hcg-620m-p-PER.640140

or if you're really on a tight budget and don't actually need 650w, this XFX is a solid choice too http://www.e-shop.gr/psu-xfx-ts-series-550w-p-PER.640669

Higher up in prices, that site also has Corsair RMx and RMi PSU's and Cooler Master V and VS series PSU's which are also excellent and the excellent gold-rated modular XFX XTR...

You can't go wrong with any of these choices, it just seems that EVGA is not well distributed in Greece

With that system you'd be fine with a decent 500-550W PSU assuming you're overclocking

Any of these would be good too...

Really it just comes down to you deciding if you want loads and loads of power for SLI or extreme overclocks and picking the cheapest one of these or the ones mentioned above (though the gold-rated ones are probably a nicer choice these days than the older bronze platforms of the HCGm and TS)

well...true haha
To imagine the "suckness" i went to one of the biggest pc shop in my city and asked them about evga psus.
They said that they never heard of the brand and when i persisted they said if they dont know it surely it must be bad!
Thats the greece for you haha!

Sorry to be asking again in this thread but i got the mentioned psu today and tried to fit it in my case!
Judging by the screws the normal position of the psu seems to be with the fan upside(aiming at the gpu)..since i dont want that is it safe to turn it upside down(fan down)?2 of the 4 screws wont fit now obviously but the other 2 keep it quite firm in place.
The case is a corsair carbide 500r and it has a big hole on the bottom with filter.

I understand what you are saying but this psu is definitely upside down when the fan is looking down(you can see the lettes on its auto/eco switch next to the power slot also upside down).
The question is does that affect it in any way?

looking at your case from the front, is your board on the right or the left side of the case? maybe the case is just using an unusual layout.
generally I don't think it will affect the PSUs performance but I'm on no authority to say really...

hmm thats not like my case but yes i do have it like that placed.
Definitely only 2 screws can be mounted but it seems pretty firm in place with just the two.

Btw how can you place pictures in the conversation?
