Those PSU's look highly dodgy, especially the arctic power one. Go for the VX650 (corsair) or VX550(again corsair) for best reliability. They last foever and often supply more than their rated output, as opposed to less.

I searched their site for a pro version but only found the standard. Still, it's a great line of PSUs. The Coolermaster Real Power 700w psu should be excellent for you. I have the pro, 750w, price is about x2 what those you showed were, but, the quality is well worth it. I also have a Zotac, though i have the AMP! edition. It's a great card. Enjoy :)

The coolermaster is priced @: £85.52

£85 is a bit too much for me man as i just today bought a gtx 260 im kind of drained out now so i just went ahead and bought the 2nd one on my opening post. i hope i made the right choice in both.
