I have:
P3-650E (o/c to 800)
ABIT BE6-II
20GB ATA66 7200RPM Drive
6x DVD/32x CD
8x4x32x CD-R
GeForce2 GTS 32MB (5.5ns)
SBLive! Value
Netgear NIC
4" Case fan
USB Printer
USB Keyboard -> USB Mouse & USB Joystick
300 Watt L&C Power Supply (free, & my old one was 250Watt, which is now in my daughters computer)

I think I've got a Power supply problem. When I hit the power switch, lights come on, fans start up, but it never POSTS. This just started recently (I have another thread on that).

So, I figure it's the power supply.

Anyway, I want to upgrade to an Athlon T-Bird 1.33GHz later this year (Aug or Sep). What power supply should I get now, that I won't have to upgrade then?

I don't really wanna spend more than $50 on it. (So the 400Watt jobbies are out of the question)

Ouch, lowest I can find is $59 + at least $10 for shipping.

Maybe. Just maybe. I don't want to have to go to a 1.2Ghz T-Bird just so I can afford a Power Supply.
