I am looking to upgrade my 350 power supply to a 480-550, please suggest a good one. I want to have the psu for a while so i think a 520-550 would do nicely. I am looking fior a high quality one that will get the power where it needs to go most efficiently. Thanks all!

i wanted somthing fior the future too, somthing that will last, not burn out and be reliable. All I know is that when I plug my dvd burner into the psu i have now, i cant play games, but unplugged i can. I want to change this psu as soon as possible.

I am seriously a novice in this area. I need a psu that will connect with my computer components.

Should I get the antec that someone listed above?
