    Power rating wise yeah, it's more than enough.

    thats a little cheap for a 800w psu.

    the psu is one thing you dont want to skimp on with a system, as if it dies, it may well take out a few other things with it.
    Its not snobbery, but its best to stick to well known brands. with good aftermarket services. for example corsair psu's now come with 7 year warentys, i feel safe knowing that

    Ok so the things I will need are 2x6 pin connectors?

    Im really struggling to find a perfect one :/

    These are my specs:
    Processer : AMD Phenom II X6 1055T
    Ram : 6gb
    Motherboard : AS rock? M3AUCC AMD 480X crossfire + SB 600 chipset
    PSU : Novatech 800w
    OS : Windows 7 ultimate
    Also I should add that I use my 46inch HITACHI TV screen as my monitor. ( dont know if that effects the picture or not) derp :P

    Im looking for one that fits the bill perfectly, and has all the adapters that i need for a GTX580, ive been looking alot but I dont see to get very far as my knowledge about computers starts and ends at how to use the task manager :P
    If someone would spare the time to find me one preferably on this site :Aria PC - Computer Hardware, Components, Monitors.. at lowest prices id be very grateful :) Its not that im being lazy (well it is kind of) but i have no idea how to find one that is perfect for the GTX580.
    Id be willing to spend around 100 pound :)

    a 650w will be more than fine. you can go bigger if you want more future proofing, and or crossfire/sli

    850W Corsair TX850 V2 ATX2.3 SLI/Crossfire Compliant Power Supply - Aria Technology

    I think I will go with this one incase I decide to sli in the future, does this have those 6 pi connectors? is that what this is : 4x PCI-E 6+2 pin ^^

    One more check before I buy both
    This graphics card : Gigabyte GeForce GTX 580 SOC 1536MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card - Aria Technology
    Will work with this PSU:
    850W Corsair TX850 V2 ATX2.3 SLI/Crossfire Compliant Power Supply - Aria Technology

    After which I will send you all good rep :)

    yeah will work fine. the 4x 6+2pin are what you use for the GPU, and youve got 4 so you can have 2 gpu's lol.
