I am building my own PC and I don't know what sort of power supply I should get. Here are my specs:
MSI Z87-G45 Motherboard
Nvidia GeForce GTX 750 Ti GPU 2GB
16GB RAM (Ballistix)
Intel Core i7 4770K 3.50GHz
Seagate 1TB Barracuda Internal Hard Drive
Edimax Wireless-N150 PCI Adapter
Wired Mouse and Keyboard
Zalman Z11 Plus High Performance Mid Tower Gaming Case with GREEN LED

Thanks! :)

The XFX P1-550S-XXB9 is not Intel Haswell Compatible. XFX even says it's not compatible. JonnyGURU.com has also shown that it may/will run into problems with Intel's C6/C7 power states when you see the Crossload tests.

The following are confirmed to be Haswell Compatible and are within your $80 budget limit:

Seasonic S12G-450
