Be very careful when purchasing a power supply! It is almost always the first thing people look to save a few dollars on when building a new machine, yet it's the heart of your computer. Cheaper models have a greater chance of going *boom* when stressed... and when they do, they have the ability to take out every single other component in your computer (by way of excessive power surge).
I'd go with Ash's recommendation of spending the extra $10 and going for Antec, even if for nothing else than ease of mind

Hi!
Antec is nice, although I've still had them go on me.
I'm currently using a Tagan PSU, it's been in my computer for about a year if not longer and it's still going strong.

“…so realistic, it'll have you picking shrapnel out of your backside.”
Ash makes a good point on weight. The PSU I replaced weighted maybe 1/4 the weithg of the Truepower I put in. Like everyone has said, spend extra on teh PSU as it could destroy your other parts if it is junk.
