Which Power Supply to buy?

[JPunisher]

Hey guys, just wanting to find out which power supply would be the best for my PC.

e8400 OC to 3.6 @ 1.28 vcore
4x 120mm Fans
Inno3D GTX 295 (Old 8600 GT currently installed waiting for power supply)
2x 250Gig HDD
4 Gigs G.skill RAM

I am looking for the 850 watt mark, I currently have two Power Supply's in mind.

OR

Please suggest which is best, and don't be confused by the site, I live in South Africa so we use Rands =D

http://www.eggxpert.com/forums/thread/323050.aspx I always hear Corsair being recommended but from this website it seems to me that the Zalman one is good quality too. So either or. I use a Corsair and have never had a problem with it.

Here is a link to a power supply calculator:

The result will be the total for the entire system and it will be overestimated because there are a lot of cheap, low quality psu's of questionable performance that people insist on buying.

Corsair, Seasonic, and PC Power & Cooling are all high quality brands that consistently earn high marks in technical reviews and comparisons. They are stable and very reliable. They're often recommended by veteran posters at this forum.

Corsair, Seasonic, PC P&C, Thermaltake (above 700)....all are great psus
Another good one to look out for is the Antec TruePower New. Look good
