PSU Recommendation for HTPC

[monkstah]

Ok. Here are the specs of what I will have when completed,
need to know the best possible PSU for the lowest price.

7800GT Video card for HDCP
1gig or 2gigs of ram
C2D 1.86ghz, I believe it's the E6300
3 HDs (1 250gig Maxtor Sata, 1 200gig Maxtor Sata, and 1 WD 320gig Sata)
1 DVD Rom and 1 DVD Burner
HDTV Tuner (no idea which one yet)
and C2D mobo (no idea there either)

What kind of PSU should I get to run all of this, and possibly contain another HD if necessary?

XClio 450BL, Xclio Goodpower 500, Corsair HX 520, Seasonic S12 430.

got the corsair 520 for my htpc

 

[_Korruption_]

The Seasonic S12-430 would be nice and quiet.

That Corsair does look perfect. Can I get some time frames on how long you've used it, if there have been any issues?

I know PSUs are very important and do not want to get one that a year from now will crap out. As someone mentioned in the PSU list, Dell does have good PSUs because I'm using a 350W from them off a old Dell and it runs my x300, Ehomewonder, 3.2ghz P4, Abit Fatality, 2gig of ram, 200gig and 250gig HD without any problems.

Thanks for the help.

For an HTPC u need quiet and XCLIO is not quiet.

Do the Corsair or try a Seasonic (s-12 series)..

Cheapeast decent quiet? Probably Ante Neo series = not slighlty lower quality of Seasonic.

 

[monkstah]

corsair hx is the best bang for the buck, and quietest is what i am hearing, am i correct?

 

[MC FLMJIG]

Do it. Do it now!

 

[Bbq]

Best bang for buck. It meets all 3 requirements: bang for buck, quiet, high quality. In most cases, it's pick 2. Not in the HX 520's case, it does it very well.
