ditch the Aspire, there horrible PSU's (none of the numbers are correct, and a lot of time the numbers they do list are max and not continuous)

Get this instead, a hell of a lot better then a aspire

FSP Group (Fortron Source) 450W

thats more then enough power for your rig

Looks like it's got 2 12v rails (shown as +12V1 and +12V2) and each of them at 18A.

That's sounds like plenty to me.
