    Which psu to buy...

    I'm building my dad a nicer computer so he does not have to use that god forsaken laptop any longer. Now, the motherboard is a HP Vectra VL800 (Asus P4T) with all rubycon, nichicon, and sanyo OScon caps, so I don't have to worry about that. I was wondering, which psu is best for it. I want to stick to a good company like PC power+cooling, Seasonic, etc....

    This is what I have so far.

    I want to stay in the under $40 price range if possible.

    I wouldn't go with a Seasonic unless it's an S12 series or above.. I don't think their lower grade PSU's have the really good caps like the S12's do.. I'd just get a 300 or 350 W fortron..
