This is probably the "cheapest" PSU I'd recommend for that build.

Here's what I would consider if I HAD TO BUY: US PC Part Picker - 550 watt PSU < $55.
Personally, I'd wait until I could afford a reliable unit.

Edit: For $5 more, I'd get this Seasonic S12III

Newegg just put the Seasonic M12II on sale. $59.99 plus a $20 mail in rebate brings it down to $40. It's the most reliable unit in the budget segment and the only PSU worth buying that stays within your stated budget. It's also fully modular.
