My old supply died last night in spite of technically being above the level required for my new card. My computer guy put in a new one for me without labour fees since he'd just put in the video card. Its a gigabyte superb 720 (which gives me some wriggle room for other upgrades). He also suggested I get a bigger case, mine's a bit old and not really designed for big gaming components and max airflow. Since he has a similar set up, in a similar not air-conditioned environment, I'm thinking hew understands what I need best. He suggested I look around and find the one I like most (he'll do the swap over if I want). I was going to get a couple of suggestions off him today but I forgot.
Anyhoo - I have a power supply replaced with something nice in about 2 hours with no labour cost. I like my computer shop :)
now off to reading up on case brands :D...I may wait till another couple of pays to buy one.

I'm expecting your next post to be "New monitor!" or "New motherboard!".
You have discovered my secret plan to upgrade my computer one component at a time - while pretending it is necessary!
PS. I like the master cooler HAF X

though I've only just started looking
I also think this is very freaky, but I'm not going to buy it - not cheap!...and nearly 30 kg by the time you've put components in, probably.
