If you're after a good quality PSU that will last, stick to these brands:

Corsair
FSP
Seasonic
Thermaltake
CoolerMaster
Antec
BeQuiet
XFX
OCZ
Enermax

Avoid these brands:

Atrix
Highpower
EZcool
Casecom

Most PSU's are made by a handful of companies, the largest including Delta, FSP, Seasonic, Channel Well - these are all OEM's, so most people haven't hears of these brands.

Here's a good reference guide to see who makes which PSU's: http://www.10stripe.com/articles/who-made-your-power-supply.php

The highpower 750w modular PSU has been installed and the pc has been stress tested over the past 24 hours and it seems to be working just fine I've been told by the tech advisor who installed it, now I will probably upgrade the PSU in the near future to possibly one of the brands you suggest but will this do in the meantime?? And what is bad about the brand??.

Nothing in particular apart from fact they wont output 750w for nearly as long as a corsair or something
