I'm looking for a PSU for my dads PC (not mine in the signature) as we suspect either his motherboard or PSU has a fault (so we're going to get a new PSU and a second-hand motherboard). It will be used for gaming on an AMD 7950 (and future cards). We never have plans to use more than one GPU so extra power for SLI/Crossfire is not needed. The CPU is an Intel i5 2500 (non k) with an aftermarket fan cooler and about 5 case fans. What wattage would be needed? We are in the UK and have a budget of £50 - £90 max (please no USA prices, in the UK we pay more). It would be nice if the PSU had a long warranty. Overclockers UK and Scan UK are the websites we usually shop with but Dabs, Amazon, eBuyer among others are also fine if the price is good.
Any recommendations? The Corsair Builder Series CX 750W V2 '80 Plus Bronze' Power Supply looks good but I don't really know much about PSU's. I don't understand why some PSU are double the price of others yet have the same wattage.
