Default Need help picking PSU

I need help finding a good cheap PSU for around 70 to 100 dollars. I need it to power a e6750, xfx 680I LT Motherboard, 1 or 2 optical drives, 1 or 2 hard drives, a 8800GT, and some fans.
Which would be better a True Power Trio 650W or a Cooler Master Real Power Pro 750W

Given the rebate on the Coolermaster 750W, that would be a top choice. The Corsair VX550W is another great option if you don't want the huge rebate. Take a look at http://www.computerforum.com/90117-c...endations.html for more.

It's always tough to find a "good" as well as "cheap" part like a power supply. Though, you can definitely find one to fulfill your needs for about $100. Check out the PSU page on the forum for advice.
