Price seems quite good right now, 600w PSU's are good for most systems running single GPU set ups. (Depending on specs) Should be enough to keep your hardware happy. I think a lot of folks are mislead into beleiving that more wattage = More power
A decent quality PSU an absolute must
Reviews are decent and if you're trying to keep cable management ship shape, this should make things much easier. Tidy cables can help airflow for cooling in general too, and in my experience more cables = more dust catchers. I hate having cables just flapping around my system (Don't even... :smile:)
Aesthetically pleasing too, if that's your thing. My PSU is currently hidden away out of sight, but when I look at it I feel a selfie coming on :neutral_face:

Personally, I'd go for the EVGA 650 GQ. Gold rated, 50 more watts, fan-less mode, 2 more years on the warranty. Worth the 2 quid extra in my book.
It's an absolute no brainer, I can't see any logical reason to go for the Be Quiet over the EVGA.
The extra 50 watts and the Gold efficiency aren't likely to be that useful to most people in the real world (though I suppose the gold efficiency will help to claw back some of your extra £2), but the silent, fanless mode will be useful to everyone who uses the PSU and an extra 2 years of warranty is great for peace of mind.
Sorry, OP, I had to vote cold on this on the basis the EVGA makes much more sense for an extra 2 quid and is being sold by the same place.
Agree with you, if I were in need of a PSU I'd buy this instead.

Be Quiet generally good but they HAVE made some boob-boos... Do find out what PSU it really is... If it's good, heat (not voting)

600w is PLENTY if you're running a single GPU with an OC'd CPU, I've been running my same XFX 550w Pro since 2011, on multiple systems ranging from AMD 6 cores, 8 cores, i7's and now an i5, all overclocked too, currently running an i5 6600k OC'd to 4.5ghz with a GTX 970 perfectly fine on the same PSU, even though it's roughly 6 years old.

How would this perform with a msi R9 390 8gb? Currently running a Corsair 750M and receiving coil whine, ive read a change of PSU can often fix that.

The EVGA one seems a little better i admit that, wouldnt mind paying an exta £15. I really need to buy a psu i lent one off a friend about 2/.3years back after mine wouldnt work with my new motherboard haha
