I was looking for a cheapo PSU for a HTPC but wanted reliability. I found that the cheapest with good reviews were CIT PSUs which is selling for £23 on amazon and Aerocool Integrator which is selling for £28.98 (both tier 3 PSUs I think). Getting this Evga PSU ensures reliability for this price point which is amazing, get it while its in stock!
Comes with an outstanding 3 year warranty.
100-W1-0430-KR - 430W EVGA 80 PLUS White, Fully Wired, Single Rail, 34A +12V, 1x120mm Fan, ATX PSU
This PSU is being advertised under two scan codes. The one being advertised in the PSU section is 'LN54718' for £33.98!
Short cables on these, and 430w is questionable. If you are using a powered GPU it's worth getting 500w to cover all bases. If you also have a few hard drives, fans and USB devices etc then defiantly go for something more powerful as this will quit under load .
For an entry level PC build this will do.

Chinese capacitors seem to be the only thing wrong with this PSU. Good for the money.

Hi guys, I have this computer (http://www.ebuyer.com/719943-hp-280-g1-mt-desktop-n0d96ea-abu). Unfortunately it has only got a 180w psu and I want to upgrade the gfx card to something a little more powerful. I've been toying with the idea of replacing the psu and this looks a good deal, the only issue is are all psu's similar dimensions etc? How would I know if this psu will fit into my case? Cheers

You need to check whether your HP Desktop supports this ATX power supply form factor
Or, alternatively google for someone who has done the replacement.

Looks out of stock now. I bought mine from Amazon but they supplied an EU plug so got £5 refund for that, so similar price in the end. It is very quiet and looks great but in my case the SATA power cable was not long enough to stretch between one hard drive and the DVD drive in my case so had to use a molex to SATA adapter for that.

Mines just arrived, I needed a new power supply for the HTPC to power my old graphics card. Now I can use HDMI to connect it to the TV.
Very easily the best price to quality ratio for a PSU that I could find at the moment. Thanks for the heat :smiley:

Same PSU as used in JERMgaming's "potato masher" build on YouTube, which uses a GTX 760 and an overclocked i5, been running over a year and doesn't show any signs of stopping yet.

This is in my sons PC and is almost 3 years old. Quiet as a mouse and never had any issues, used it in 2 different computers upto now.
Moved it from one PC to another and at moment its powering X4 860K and GTX 950, few fancy led fans and couple of hard drives, wireless card and sound card and is in use for a max 24 hours each week purely playing games, so does get put under some strain.
Though it wasn't this cheap when we bought it

Good product at great price. You'll get moaners-that it is not modular and doesn't come in silver. But it's still 24 quid for reliable psu.

However, that manual doesn't give the part number or the dimensions of the supply. The back look standard though, easiest thing might be to measure your existing and compare it to this one, or to the standards:
