Default Need green PSU for new PC..

My old Dell 4600 PC has been having a few problem lately.
It's an older XP system and is suffering from a zillion Windows updates. (It's slow).
I think it might be getting heat sensitive also. Crashes under heavy loads.

I picked up a new PC the other day and found it needs a better PSU.
Lenovo H420 Desktop PC | StaplesŪ

The stock 280w PSU won't support a graphics card update. (Radeon HD 6850).
I think I'll need a peak power of 400 to 500w.

I've heard there are new 'green' ATX12V PSUs on the market.
Anyone here have any experience with them?
