Corsair CX 500W, it will give you a little bit of room to upgrade.

For this, i'd go with the CX500. As said before, it will give you more room to upgrade and better to overclock with. They're both good PSU's.

XFX Pro Series 450w Core Edition. Better quality and is around the same price of the Corsair unit.

Five year warranty on XFX units provided they are registered within 30 days, otherwise its ONLY 3 years. *sob*.

I wouldn't get that SSD, instead get a Hyper3K 120GB if they are still on offer for around 60 pounds otherwise another one around that price point.
