Hello I am currently planning to upgrade from a GeForce 2 to a GeForce 6600GT (after my TI4800 stopped worked due to the nv4_disp.dll inifnite loop issue). My current PSU is a 300W (Brand:Discovery). However I was planning to upgrade to a 400W PSU so I found these at my local store:

Fortron Source BlueStorm 400W PSU( ATX&EATX ) $61.00.
Power Supply P4 550W Dual Fan $40.00 (couldnt find a brand)
Gate Power Supply P4 500W EATX 24-PIN $13.00

I was like wondering why the heck is there such a HUGE gap in price between all 3 PSU.
Can someone tell me if it is worth buying the 60$ PSU because I am looking for something stable and can deliver "good quality and relible" power. As long as it is something reliable, I will pay for it.

Thank You

Edit:I was reading a review about the Fortron PSU and they stated something about:
Smart Housing Molex Connectors
can someone give me a brief explanation of this
 
Almost all Fortron PSUs are great, including that one. It is a quaility PSU that will continue to work for a long time, it is worth the extra money.

Thank you for your input. So i guess i'll get the fortron PSU.
 
Just remember, 'You get what you pay for' when it comes to lower end PS. But not always heh.
