I picked up the CX430, the 500w was £13 more with delivery.

HAH, CBC emailed me, the order can't be fulfilled, it's actually out of stock.
CX430 is £7 more delivered from Ebuyer, so I shall still go for it...

The cheapest one I can get that won't blow up is an Antec Basiq 350W.
Which, I read on a sticker on teh side of one (from a picture from the web) doesn't have the recommended number of amps on the 12v rail for the 7600GS.
Whereas the Corsair, the next cheapest one I would trust, has enough.
If my parents buy a cheap one on my recommendation, and it blows up, they end up with my laptop... and I end up in a whole lot of trouble.
I'd rather get a good one I can use with a new system when this Pentium 4 actually dies.
