If he can afford it, I'd go with either a Corsair TX650V2 or an XFX core edition 650W.

If he's on a tighter budget, than http://hardwareinsights.com/2011/10/ ... 0w-review/ might be OK. It's rated at 600W but it can deliver 650.

Actually, you're probably right. I'm assumming it's a VX450, in which case, it can actually deliver 550W.
