Default Suggestion wanted

I'm looking for a quite PSU that can cope with a CrossFire setup.

Preferably from

Microdirect.co.uk

or

Spotonuk.com

As these are my local stores.

As I said, Microdirect and spoton are my local stores.

Last time I was in PC world I bought a laptop that has been in for repair a good 4 times due to overheating.
