    The last word in inexpensive PSUs. I run PCP&C unless a sponsor's paying.

    I'm a pretty big fan of Seasonic, Sparkle and Corsair as well as power supplies being 80 Plus Certified. I'd go with this one, unless you need more power.

    Use this to find out whether it'll be enough or not.

    Stay away from Rosewill. They're about as generic and as cheap of a brand as you can get. Then again, people seem to like them alright. Maybe I'm just a quality control junkie. lol
    People are stupid; given proper motivation, almost anyone will believe almost anything. Because people are stupid, they will believe a lie because they want to believe it's true, or because they are afraid it might be true. People’s heads are full of knowledge, facts, and beliefs, and most of it is false, yet they think it all true. People are stupid; they can only rarely tell the difference between a lie and the truth, and yet they are confident they can, and so are all the easier to fool.

    Rosewill is a "pretty shiny" maker, not one known for high quality.

    I stand behind PCP&C, but also have no issue with the ones you've posted.
