Any thoughts on NSpire power supplies?

I get most of my hardware from ASI, and one of their child companies is NSpire who is a power supply manufacturer. I've used them a few times in the past (they are incredibly affordable) for ~300W PSU's which all seemed to work fine, but now I'm looking to get something a little more high end for my new NForce4-based system. I'm aware that it's generally good to avoid generic companies for anything critical, which a PSU certainly is, but I'm wondering if anybody has had any direct experience with some of their higher-end (400W+) PSUs. If so, I'd love to hear about it. It's hard not to seriously consider a 450W "silent" ATX 2.0 w/ 24-pin connector (black w/ LEDs) PSU for < $40. :) Again, I know generally "you get what you pay for", but that's not the case w/ AMD vs. Intel and my experiences so far have shown NSpire to be A-OK. Meanwhile, I don't want to set my new system ablaze.
