im on a really tight budget, and when i mean tight, i mean it. Im getting the 9600gt low profile for light gaming (yes i know this card is 4 years old but remember, tight budget. aim also going with this one so that my cpu e4500 wont bottleneck it that much) and i was gonna get this psu http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817182021
but then i did some research and found that the 9600gt requires 26 amps on 12v rail and saw that this one has 14 amps so im sure it wont be able to run it.
my budget for the psu is U.S. $30
ive done some research and i found these
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817822011
Diablotek 400w 25 amps
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817338009
Athena Power 400w 21amps
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817822018
Diablotek 400w 25amps
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817822018
Diablotek 400w 25amps
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817170028
Logisys 550w 25amps
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817822002
Diablotek 450w 30amps
These are the only ones that i found that close to 26amps but they are not the best brands.
Can anyone recommend me a psu that will handle a 9600gt low profile thats preferably under $30 or up to $35(free shipping lol)

I like to usually emphasize this quote on this guide


A cheap power supply isn't a good place to try to save money, although it's often the first place less experienced builders will try to go cheap. As a general rule, you want a well-built power supply that conforms to modern technical standards, and you can expect to spend at least $40 on it. Decent PSUs priced under $30 simply do not exist. Keep your eye out for the following safety-oriented features:

if its after rebate, its possibly a different story, but if its before, the quote will hold true for the most part if you are buying it brand new.
