Hey guys, i have a 500watt psu i paid 35$ for it and my 12V rail is dipping to 11.55 sometimes.. im guessing after getting my x1800 that its just murdering this cheap psu.. im getting some keyboard problems, also some flickering of my case fans from touching the psu rails.. so this thing just acts like its hanging on a thread :p so i was wondering if somebody can point me in the direction of a powerful psu.. somthing more than enough to power this system and upgrades down the road. $120 is all i can afford, and im sure it will be enough.. thanks for any and all opinions :)
 
The 500W Antec SmartPower at Fry's for $14.99 after $40 rebate. Some Fry's are ringing that up at $40, making it essentially free.
