Just wondering which would be a good psu for my 780i mobo because it has 24 pin and the cpu 8 pin
could i use a 4 pin instead of the 8?

How do I know the HX520 is good? Cause Danny said it!
Nah but really, the HX series are great because of the modular feature. This means that the PSU and its cables are separate which let you connect only what you need. Not to mention these won't die on you! (of course unless they're DOA)

He knows what he's on about
Also, they have three 12v rails, so there's plenty of juice

Is there anything cheaper that's still good? like 50-60$

Yeah, take a look at the Corsair VX series, just as good but without the modular cables

...and cookies!
On topic:
I own a Rosewill RD series and it has done a great job. They are around the $50 US range and I say are a good PSU brand.

The Corsair HX520 modular PSU isvery good!
I could back that up... It's awesome, so quiet...
And I do not care for Rosewill...
I would say if you could get a modular PSU, I got a decent (non modular) as everyone on here told me you loose power on modular PSUs so I didn't get one. Now I regret it I HAVE SOOO many cables everywhere doing nothing except being in the way.
Generally stick to big brands and your safe such as Corsair and OCZ etc.

Good value, but what will you be powering (video card(s), CPU, etc...).
With regards to modular PSUs, see http://www.motherboards.org/articles/guides/1488_1.html. Very little difference between modular and fixed connectors.
