I heard that one isnt actually made by Seasonic. Is that true and should I still get it?

Avoid that power supply.
It is not made by SeaSonic.

For a budget power supply under $80c this is what I found.

It is an oem unit. I have one running a Phenom2 x6, and GTX1070 for 3 years straight 24/7/365 100% load.

That is even worse meant only for extremely cheap builds. Look SS-ES in Tier D...

That is true but for your budget, the S12iii is the best you can do. Its not the best but more closer to decent than any other unit.
I would say, spend a bit more and get this...

Much better unit and should be more than enough wattage for your build.
