i think your computer runs on coal or steam

if not then any cheap power supply will do. there should be plenty around christmas. if this year was anything like last year then you should find some 500w coolermasters for 5 dollars after rebate. check the ps recommendations for reliable brands.
 
Actually, I am upgrading my video card, I dont ned insane gaming, so i bought a Nvidia Feforce 6200 OC 256mb AGP, since my old won was only 32mb!!!!

lol. The Seasonic unit I posted will support that card. However, if you'd like a little headroom, this Antec 350W unit will suffice. It's also a lot cheaper than the Seasonic unit.
 
Actually, I was looking at 500w one that was the only one I could find for a good price not online. Its a COOLER MASTER eXtreme Power Plus RS-500. Is it any good?
 
Also, do you know of any other popular stores that would carry good brands for good prices? Futureshop and bestbuy were horrible. I don't really want to buy online.

Any reason why you don't want to buy online? Newegg is highly reputable. Anyway, Fry's electronics and Microcenter are two of the major retailers I'm familiar with.
