I blew up my old PSU because I was special. So im looking around for a new one and instantly think of Corsair. I have seen a couple of £50 corsairs, but i read a review NOT to get the builder series...

Is this true? Whats wrong with the builder series? I want you to say its all a myth and the builder series are fine..... That would make it a bit easier.

Hi. They are fine. What's your system spec and budget? If your budget is at least £50, there's the XFX ProSeries Core Edition which are better.

450W

Well in that case either the CX430 V2 or XFX ProSeries Core Edition 450W will do fine with plenty to spare. Since the XFX ProSeries Core Edition 450W is better and costs even less than the CX430 on Novatech, you should definitely go with the XFX.
