I have had good luck with Sparkle's from Newegg's site .. I mainly use the 300-350 watters. And for your system 300 watts would be fine.

I would stay away from Powmax and Fotrons though

I have not owned a Fortron, but I hear they are very good. I have also heard that the Fortron HiQ Brand are not so good. This Fortron should be fine. Antec, Sparkle or Enermax are also good choices.

Is that "Fotron," or "Fauxtron?" ;)

Actually, Fortron and Sparkle are basically the same brand; they're both from FSP Group.

But that's really cheap! I don't know--it's a good brand, but yikes, the price is, like, scary-low. I'm sure they make a few extra on the $7 shipping, but dude!

I happen to use this Fortron: http://www.newegg.com/app/View...=17-104-966&depa=1

The voltages seem stable, about the same as my Antec True 330 that I killed, and I've had no problems with it at all.

I second this recommendation. Toss an extra $10 in and get a "real" Fortron, not the "HiQ."

one of the best values under 50 bucks I've seen is the vantec ion 2 psu.
350watts, every cable fully sleeved, 3 year warranty...

only think is if you need more power and if you have a 24pin atx2.0 mobo it would not be so good...

You left out what you have for a cpu, but 13a on the 12v rail seems a bit weak, The Antec would be better, but again, it depends on your cpu as well.
