Yeah it looks pretty good. I would have recommended the Corsair HX620 over it, but that costs quite a bit more. This one should be fine though.

620 is fine, also dont feel any need to move away from an Antec PSU,,,they are probably the most reliable make of PSU around.

Ya corsair and antec are the best, in no particular order. There both great and about the same. Then some ok ones are cooler master, pc power&cooling, silverstone.

which would be the better buy?

Antec TruePower Trio 650W PSU - With 3x 12v Rails and 120mm Fan costs £84.54

and the Corsair 650W TX Series PSU - 120mm Fan, 80+% Efficiency, Single +12V Rail Costs £77.99

the antec has 3 12v rails but less amps the corsair has 1 12v rail but more amps.
