Hi, I'm building a computer with the following specs and need a psu that's as cheap as possible to power it

E2180 with a mild OC (2.5-2.8 probably)
Cheap G31 mobo
8600GT with no OC
2GB RAM
2xHDs
2xDVD drives

I'm thinking an Antec Earthwatts 430w for $35 shipped? Any other suggestions (maybe something a little cheaper)?
 
I have a 2180 at 3ghz with a 8800gt running with a 430w earthwatts and it's been great even powering the Q6600 rig in my sig for a few months.

Any cheaper than the EA430 and you start getting shit. So the EA430 is the cheapest but still decent quality PSU available now. I highly recommend jumping on this deal ASAP
 
I have pretty much the same system as the original poster. I actually have less of a system (one less hard drive and dvd drive).

Since this deal has gone away, are there any other recommendations? I just want something reliable but inexpensive. I am currently looking at the Corsair 400CX. Would this be fine for my needs? Any other suggestions?

Thanks,
Enigma
