or what other brand do you reccommend i just need apower supply to put out enough power for the computer to run and the cheaper the better

what are some good brands?
rosewill aspire, coolmax, ePower, seasonic, thermaltake,
 
if go with the sapire... becaus it looks cool =) buta ya the enermax is teh best one but if you got a windows i mean that aspire looks soooo cool
 
Yeh,

the Enermax would also be my choice. It has dual rails as opposed to the Aspire and has a heft 18A on each which should be plenty for most purposes. I do admit that the Aspire looks good, but I would not get it given the Enermax is a better PSU.

May I also recommend CHILL INNOVATION...good PSUs but I am not sure they sell them in the US.

JAN :D
 
that aspire is still not dual 12 volt rails although it is nice at 34 AMPS.
and dont bump so fast, we will get to your post and youll have pretty much all the answers your going to get in about 2 days time. so give it about that before bumping
 
Hehe

Although the Enermax looks nice as well. The Aspire does not have dual rails : http://aspireusa.net/product.php?pid=16. I would go dual rail personally, but its up to you. Both are good PSUs.

Choose 34A on a single rail over 36A total split 50/50 on 2 12V rails (ASPIRE vs ENERMAX). The choice should be clear unless you wanna go for the looks of the Aspire instead.

Id personally go for the Rosewill. Whilst not the "best" it does look very sleek :P Plus, im pretty sure the fan is thermally controlled so theres that takes the added pressure of constantly checking temps. If it gets hot, it gets louder.
