That isn't fully modular, sorry.

^Great choice as well. But don't forget about the rebate he may no want to spend $10 extra. But the XFX Pro Series is a great PSU.

Thaisnag has a great one but $10 above your budget.

Why must you have a maximum though, the higher the better for future upgrades. And why do you really need a full modular PSU, a semi will do too.

Because i am building my first PC and I want it to be easy.

Then get Thaisnag PSU as I don't see having more watts will affect the PC. And I agree most first builders prefer full modular.

To much wattage reduces efficiency, I watched a video.

However it will be great for future upgrades and overclocking too. Well then if you want a small one that has full modular try this:
