you want to pick a psu from tier1, tier2 or tier2b on this list http://community.newegg.com/eggxpert/computer_hardware/...

you could get away with a 500w but a 550w would be better. there isnt any real need for a 650w but that xfx isnt a bad price.

generally i say xfx or searsonic are excellent choices.

the antec HCG 620w is good too, but more pricey..

pretty much there are lots of good things under $100 as long as you stick to tiers 1,2,2b

modular psus are suggested... so you dont need to worry about hiding wires and also it helps airflow.
