I am in the process of upgrading my system and believe it will require a PSU upgrade as well. Can I find a better PSU than this Fortron Source PSU for the money?

<A HREF="http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=17-104-934&depa=0" target="_new"> Fortron Blue Storm 500W ATX12V V2.0 Power Supply with 120mm Fan, P4 and AMD ready, Model "AX500-A"</A>

I figure this will give me some future-proofing and more than enough power for the next few years. Will I run into trouble with the BTX form factor?

That should be a fine power supply for the price.
I haven't really been keeping track of btx to closely but it looks like it is going nowhere fast so you should be ok for a while :)
