I'm looking to buy a new PSU seeing as my old one wouldn't be able to run the new 6950 I've bought.
Anyone who's knowledgeable in these things, do any of these models look appropriate?

The 750 watt one will be fine, although I don't know that brand of power supply. I'd go for a better brand, but still get a 750 watt one. And that will be fine.

I would go with something from Corsair, psus are something you shouldn't cheap out on.

May I ask what your budget is?

I would probably go with

CM gx650 58pounds [http://www.amazon.co.uk/Cooler-Master-RS650-ACAAE3-UK-Power-Supply/dp/B0035QAKOM/ref=sr_1_1?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1322779302&sr=1-1]

or if you got a bit more money

650Tvx 70 pounds [http://www.amazon.co.uk/Corsair-CMPSU-650TXV2UK-Enthusiast-Performance-Supply/dp/B004O0P9TO/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1322151088&sr=8-1]

Both should work great for you and both are good brands (as far as I know at least) and the only reason that I link the corsair is simply cause I've used several corsair psus and never had any problem

Looks good, I think I'll order that Cooler Master tomorrow, see if I can find it at a cheaper price somewhere. Thanks for the good help, mate.
