Hi. i have took the plunge and ordered a i7 rig with a 260gtx card(216 core version) but im without a PSU as the Enermax 625W PSU is out of stock and will be for a while so im wondering whats a good alternative at around the same price point.

i dont want to go any higher then £90. will this be fine? http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/680W...d-12V-Rails-Thermal-Control-80plus-Efficiency

or this one? http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/650W...plus12V-rail-silent-1x120mm-fan-80-efficiency

i was considering the corsair 620w but that's gone up in price alot and is now around £108 as a posed to it being in the £80 it once was not too long ago.

as well as powering up a 260gtx along with the mobo and i7 gear, i will be powering up between 4-5 hdd's as well as over 6 120mm cooling fans
 
Either of those PSUs are good choices. You really can't go wrong going with either of them.

With that said, I'm partial to the MX-680 since it has a pretty decent (in theory anyway) cooling design.
