OK, I need a new PSU, and since regular reviews can be somewhat unreliable when it comes to PSU's, I figured this is a good place to ask!
Now, I've got a Venice Athlon 64, so obviously I intend to overclock it (actually I already have, but the PC keeps on shutting down after an hour or so of gaming, a clean reboot, so I guess my PSU ain't up to the task). Also, I'd like a PSU that's capable of sustaining a water cooling system.
Here are a few suggestions of my own (I'm guessing a 500 watt PSU is the minimum in this case):
TAGAN EasyCon 530-U15
530 watts, 20A on the first 12V line, 20A on the second, (30A on +5V, 26A on +3.3V). If i remember correctly, this brand is pretty good, but the only review I've found is in german ...
Hiper Type-R 580W Blue
580 watts, 20 A on the first 12 V line, 18A on the second, 36 A on +5V, 32A on + 3.3V.

Here's a link to a review.
I was looking at Komplett.se (I'm in sweden) and they've got 60+ different PSU's here, Fortron Source, Hiper, Cooler Master, Noth-Q, Seasonic, Silverstone, Tagan, Thermaltake...
I suppse I should go with one of the more famous brands (Hiper?, Seasonic, Thermaltake, Tagan?, Fortron). Any ideas??

One thing though, I don't have unlimited funds, and I have no need for anything above 600 watts. Just a pointer...
Update:
I found this one in another store:
OCZ Modstream 520W EU ATX,
but it only has one +12V rail.
And this one:
Antec TruePower 2.0 550W
