OK I need a cheap 400W-500W power supply, any suggestions?

Well the title of the board is what this is about! Thanks and oh yea i don't want to go over like $20 if possible!

Thanks!

OCZ StealthXtreme 500W PSU is a great PSU that can handle a lot of cards but if you want you could spend little more for a little less power but more stability with the Corsair VX 450w PSU.

Wait I've just realised that you want a $20 PS... well Im not bothered to look right no, but for $20 dollars your going to kill what ever setup you have simply because anything over 300w thats cheaper than $20 is a POS.

Just have a look on newegg, they will all be pretty much the same at that price, they might not last you more than a few months but then again they might, my cheap 450W PSU lasted about 4 months but i also have a 300W, and i think it was a cheap one, PSU from the year 2000 that i still use a lot, so that's 8 years of solid use....

Make sure the PSU you choose has the relavent, sata or PCI-E power cables, fan cables etc..

This isn't true, trading standards wouldn't allow PSU to pass if they were blowing up PC's especially such an eclectrical part such as a PSU, tbh it's a bit like generic ram, they should be fine...

I was referring to performance and since this is a gaming site I just assumed he/she was getting a cheap PSU to run a gaming setup up of some sort.

That's the best one I could find for a low price. Rosewill makes good PSUs, I have one in my brother's rig and its running strong.

I second this. I stuck a Rosewill in my old gaming PC when the original blew and it has been running well enough for about a year now.

Actually get this instead.

It has the exact same specs, but the shipping is free.

I have had this in a spare gaming computer for over 3 years without a problem.

Only $40 and free shipping. $28 after mail in rebate.
