Looking for a Power Supply

This is the PSU I have right now.  My calculated consumption was somewhere around 450W min, 500W recommended.  750W should give me a nice buffer for upgrading in the future.

I am aware this may be out of your price range, but do look into buying a NEW PSU, and from a quality manufacturer.

Everybody thinks a good rig is all about what kind of CPU or GPU you get.  PSUs play a HUGE role in your overall stability and performance, and a lot of people skimp on it.

Why buy a used PSU from a unrecognizable brand for $60, when you can buy a new one from a reputable brand for $30-40 more?

Because he has no money.....

I do agree with you though, saves so much heart ache.

If you are in the states, just squat newegg for a month and keep an eye out for their sales/promo codes. Sooner or later something decent will crop up in the 60-70 dollar range.

I think I paid 75 dollars shipped for my Antec True Power New 750,  which is about 25 less than I spent on my Corsair 750, and it's a better PSU.

This.

Check their daily deals.  There's always something good if you watch it for a week or two.
