Help on PSU!!

[iggy101]

Hey guys im building a new pc and im between a rock and a hard place on the psu.
i want it to be a good brand name so i know it is reliable. i am only going to be running one graphics card (6600gt 128mb PCI-E) one hard drive 80gb, one dvd drive, an asus a8n-SLI deluxe mobo, 1GB 2*512, 3 fans.
i do want to expand to sli later so it needs to be sli compatable.
one that i really liked is this silverstone
but it is really pricey. i like the fact that it has removable cords so i can take out what i dont need.
I'm hoping somebody can give me a good mix of sli/price/reliability

The antec truepower II 550 on the cheaper side, and the OCZ powerstrem 520ADJ on the pricier side are good choices. If you can fit it in I would get the OCZ because its a beast of a PSU.

I've heard somewheres that Enermax were very good PSU because they have very stable voltage and are high quality, anyone can confirm this?

I would stay away from thermaltake PSUs as much as possible.

Agreed, Thermaltake PSUs aren't great, and that one seems only to be rated for +12V@29A, which is very low for a $95 PSU (I guess you're paying for the Active PFC).
