PSU seems to have died on my oldest PC Specialist machine

Here is the spec:

P5K SE

8800GTS

4GB Ram

I got this machine back in 07 and the PSU has now given up! I haven't fit a PSU since I was at college and I know a lot has changed since then but I'm confident I can change it easily enough. Was just wondering if this - would be compatible with the above spec and if it would be a reliable choice. I need something that wont break the bank but I want the thing to work! I tried looking at an older PSU I had but it didn't have a connection for the 8800GTS.

It's probably worth mentioning that the GPU wouldn't get a heavy load from gaming as I have a newer system for that (which I purchased from PCS of course!).

Looks fine, but we sell a decent 450W for £29.00 :) If you want one give us a shout on 0844 499 4000 and we'll get one out today for you for delivery tomorrow.

OK thank you. :) What brand would that be? I'd rather stick with a name brand if I can!

We use FSP Group, they are our main provider of PSUs, they are good quality, and are the OEM manufacturer for many named brands.

I'd go for a 650w corsair from PCS, with the added bonus of, If you ever get a new pc, you can use the same psu :)
