[SOLVED] What PSU should I get?

[PekkaTn]

I'm looking for a really cheap PSU that isn't gonna break down on me, overheat or anything like that. Here's my build:

Motherboard: Asrock G41C-GS R2.0
HDD: HGST Travelstar Z5K500 320GB
RAM: IBM 4GB 2x2GB PC2-5300 CL5 ECC DDR2 SDRAM RDIMM
CPU: HP Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 2,4 GHz
CPU cooler: StarTech 95mm Socket T 775

Thanks in advance.

Cheap power supply isn't ideal, if that goes it could take everything/something with it. As long as it is from a reputable brand e.g Corsair, Cooler master and meets the power requirements of your PC it will be fine and they aren't too expensive much less so than having to replace the entire system. You can get a decent 300W PSU for around £30/$40 And i don't think your system should need all of that.

I have never recommended a VS unit to anyone. But given the build you have, and the price being a factor. That PSU would be okay.

Corsair CX450 uses a modern DC-to-DC secondary and has a five year warranty.
