i want to upgrade my computer from a 300w standard PSU to a 500w. my only worry about this PSU is the price point, usually a PSU this cheap usually isnt that great of a quality. just curious what people think about it

To put it quite simply, that is a piece of crap that will end up smoking your system if it gets loaded.

Go for this:

Another alternative would be the Corsair VX450W.
