a GigaByte 550W Superb 550P for 16 313 HUF
or an FSP Epsilon 700W (FX700-GLN) 23 125 HUF ( the 620w if in same price )

Have you considered "Ultra"

Check out these PSU from Ultra. Gotta love that Lifetime warranty. Recently bought a new PSU and didn't get the Ultra because I didn't know about the lifetime warranty.

Check these out at Tigerdirect.com

Ultra 600W + at TigerDirect.com

get the Corsair HX620, or HX750 if you want a good PSU. other than that. I'd also recommend the PC P&C 750w silencer. I'm running SLI 260's on it.

You can shop with affiliates for many countries associated with TigerDirect.

Just go to TigerDirect.com - Computers, Computer Parts, Computer Components, Netbooks & Electronics and scroll to the bottom of the main page, look for the flags and it says choose a country (How about United Kingdom, France, Italy, Switzerland, ) or many other countries who I'm sure will ship around Europe. I don't know the flags well enough to help with this but give it a try and find an affiliate over there across the pond.

flags available:
