I usually don't recommend OCZ power supplies, but I saw this deal and was intrigued. It's a pretty good performer:

You may need to pick up an adapter for certain connections as it seems to be a little bit skimpy, but it's a good budget PSU.

Promo code: EMCLSLS25 brings it down to $49.99, then use the MIR linked on Newegg.



For convenience: a $3 dual molex -> 6-pin adapter:

I've bought a bunch of these mainly because they're cheap (between $14.99AR to $24.99AR with free shipping over the past year). Based off of FSP Epsilon. All of them make a high-frequency whine when plugged in (won't be noticed by most people). Fan isn't quiet enough for a Quiet PC (at least not for me). The higher fan speed may be to compensate for the small heatsinks this unit uses. They work fine...claimed 80% efficiency under "typical load," which besides the price, was my primary draw for this model.
 
It's back again, for 24 hours. I have one of these in one of my other machines and it's performed very well. Great deal for $29AR w/ free S&H.

Use coupon code: EMCLTMT26
 
The specs say it does have the 6 pin PCI-E connector, though. It doesn't have an 8-pin motherboard connector.

Great deal though.
