Some PSUs. Reliable?

They'll probably be reliable for the first few months, but after that they may crap out/blow up. I'd stick with brands like Enermax, Antec, Ultra, Silverstone.
 
The first two look decent, but I havent heard much about sparkle so I would stay away from them.

I found some PSUs that were cheap in the price but had enough amps to run my future rig. Just wanted to know your guy's opinions on them. They are cheap in the price but are they reliable?

Here's the deal, I bought a $20 400w PSU just to hold me over. I don't even remember the brand... Silent Max or something like that but to my surprise, it's still working great after over a year and tons of city-wide power failures (I live in Guatemala, things aren't all that stable) So, it's up to you really but I've been lucky so far (knock on wood).

I have to say though, when I first started building my computer, I bought the cheapest stuff ever (refurbished, corsair value select, etc.) and I'm starting to believe now that its better to spend more money on something really good that's going to last than spending a little bit of money a lot of times, on cheap, low quality hardware.

Good Luck!
