mmm the fan has died in my power box in my wee PC :(

and as its only a standard box that came with the PC (300W i think) im thinking of upgrading to something along the lines of 450-500W

any reccomendations? looking to spend around £80 max btw, been looking at this one:

Hiper HPU-4M580 Type R 580W ATX2.2 PSU - Black (CA-009-HP)
HPU-4M580 sets a class of its own from HIPER™ standard series. It’s really wallet friendly. It still offers the same power output specification of the award winning Type R- 580 series, the same amount of exTender™ just like Type R 580 series, not to mention the meshed body for excellent ventilation and it’s SLi certified.

- Supports ATX up to v2.2 & Intel BTX configuration.
- Complies with all Intel & AMD CPU specification requirement.
- Gold Plated connector, preventing rust & bad connection.
- High efficiency APFC (Active Power Factor Correction).
- Connects up to 4 SATA HDD + 8 other component devices.
- Dedicated PCI-E connector.
- EZ-Grip Molex connector.
- Includes P8 ATX12V connector for motherboards that supports dual core processors

I've got the modular one and couldn't rate it highly enough. Lovely and quiet, good power rating, runs cool and came in a spinky plastic box that now holds all my odd electrical parts :)
I'd certainly go Hiper again if I need another PSU.
