The computer specs in your signature are pretty decent. Why would you want to put such a cheap PSU in one of them? If you can up your budget to $100 you can get one of the best.

The cheapos work alright dont they? :)
the reason for that is maybe dont want to spend a lot of money on something that usually comes free. Ive never really invested much money in a PSU before the two i have right now came with my cases so really this is the first time im going to buy a seperate PSU.

but...
youre right i should up my limit to $100
and get top of the line.

In my experience, the cheap ones don't seem to last long and the voltages are unstable. With your systems specs, (for the most part, top of the line) why not go with one of the best PSU's?

It looks like your Gaming system is built for overclocking. A cheap PSU will not handle that very well.
