Even more specifically, the Fortron FSP400 and the SilverStone SST400.
Reliability, efficiency, etc.
Thanks in advance.

At least a Fortron 450W. Then you can consider reliability etc., etc....

OK...so I guess that Fortron>SilverStone. How does Fortron & Seasonic compare? Is 450W the minimum anymore?
Thanks for the input, guys! :)

Seasonic>Fortron (Quality) Fortron>Seasonic (Price) If the price doesn't scare you, Seasonic is the winner.

Scaring me is one thing...whether the Seasonic is worth almost double the price is another (S12-430 vs. AX-450). :)
