I'm looking to spend £50-60 on a PSU, could anyone please help me decide on which of these PSU to go for:

Coolermaster eXtreme Power 500W PSU http://www.ebuyer.com/UK/product/123113
Seasonic S12 II 430W PSU http://www.ebuyer.com/UK/product/129948
Hiper 580W Type-M Black PSU http://www.ebuyer.com/UK/product/109552
Tagan TG430-U22 430W http://www.ebuyer.com/UK/product/131555
CZ StealthXStream 600W PSU http://www.ebuyer.com/UK/product/127861
CoolerMaster Real Power 450W PSU http://www.ebuyer.com/UK/product/129211

The spec of the machine I'm building is:

Intel Core 2 Duo
Asus p5k mobo
2 GB DDR2 PC-6400 Ram
ATI X1950 pro
2 X Seagate HDD
Samsung DVD writer

I'm idealy looking for around the 500w mark as I'm thinking of buying an 8800 GTS graphics card in the future.

Many thanks!

None of those listed that I have been able to get the stats on will support an 8800GTS, someone correct me if I'm wrong but you need a 12v 26a rail for the 8800's.

OCZ Stealthstream 600w has 4 x 18amp 12v rails. It's the exact same psu as the OCZ Gamestream 600w without the modular cabeling. Same specs. Powers your system with power to spare.
