http://www.aria.co.uk/SuperSpecials/Other+products/500W+Mushkin+Enhanced+Volta+ATX2.3+Power+Supply+?productId=43769

my question is. Is the last one, the mushkin enhanced one good? I heard it has good reviews but not sure.

And will it power my pc. According to extreme thingy wattage calculator (http://extreme.outervision.com/psucalculatorlite.jsp) there is more than enough but are the cable correct for this?

Amd phenom ii x4 955
DVD Sata drive
Hybrid SSD sata
Ati radeon 5770 single slot (1 pci6 i think.)
1x 120mm fan (it is 3pin and will probably be connected to the mobo)
1x 80mm fan


anything else you need to know dont hesitate to ask. So could you please give me your thoughts on the mushkin, if you dont reccomend it, which out of the other two would you pick, and are the cables correct for my build?

The Corsair: CPMSU-430CXV2 is an 80+ rated PSU with a 9+ recommendation at JonnyGuru, and a Golden rating at Hardware Secrets. Bottom line it's a great PSU while not being modular is good for the price.

The XFX: For some reason the pic on the link you provided shows a 550 Watt PSU. But nonetheless. This PSU received a slightly lower recommendation at JonnyGuru and decent ratings at other sites. It's 80+ Bronze rated and as well isn't modular.

The Mushkin: Not recommended, not even 80+ certified. I would stay away from this PSU.

Out of the group I would recommend the XFX one over the corsair (I might catch some heat from this, usually I do prefer Corsair brand). It is manufactured by Seasonic, has a 5 year warranty, 80+ Bronze certified, is more visually appealing than the Corsair imo. Since it's only a tiny bit more expensive than the corsair and seems to be in your budget you would be fine with it. It will have enough cables for your build as well.
