I need a few good recommendations for a PSU, as the title states. My system is an AMD A6-5400K Trinity on a Gigabyte micro-ATX GA-F2A88XM-D3H mobo, with 8 GB of DDR3 RAM and a standard 7200 rpm HDD. I don't plan on using a separate GPU yet, however I will in the future, if my mobo can fit one. I'd prefer something modular or fully modular, and 80+ certified at minimum, preferably higher if possible. My PSU budget is approximately $100. Currently looking at this model.

Your mobo has a PCI-E x16 slot, so yes you can fit a proper graphics card on it. However, you need to look in the case and see how much room you have. That is, if you only have 8" or so your choices of graphics card will be limited. The most powerful cards out there tend to be around 11" long.
