I've found on few websites saying that they are amazing and other that say they suck.
I don't expect it to be more highly praised than Corsair or SeaSonic but is it a good idea to put it in my computer. Im currently using Corsair VX450 but i need a stronger one, and this AeroCool is 730W..

Check this list for your GPU power requirements.

You didn't post the exact model of that PSU, but the others are correct: They generally make a very mediocre to poor PSU. In the Tier list from huilun02 the only Aerocools are in Tier 4; not the worse but they generally don't meet specs and often cannot produce the power advertised.
Better to save up a little more money and do some searching of reviews and this forum and buy a quality PSU that is in at least Tier3 and preferably in Tier 2B or above.
Is there a way then to know if it would be enough for my GPU? Because my current is insufficient for it and it keeps crashing my driver, which crashes my game.
My GPU is MSI 5850 Twin Frozr II, though.
