I'm looking into a replacement for an old Enermax 350 that has been slowly dying. I was looking into this supply

http://www.provantage.com/buy-7ants...supply-antec-supplies-cables-neo-shopping.htm

This is the same supply that's in the HotDeals section. Anyway, I'm seriously considering this supply as replacement, but I saw a review that stated that these supplies get rather hot. Also, one user had one go bad because he ran his with an unbalenced air flow in his case (this meaning that there was were not enough exhaust fans or intake fans...maybe he had them all set as intake fans. If necessary, I'll go find the review.)

I've got an old Lian Li PC-60 with to 60mm intake fans and one 60mm exhaust fan. I'm also running an alpha 8045 heatsink with another 60mm fan. Would this be a this Antec supply be a good match for this system? Thanks.
 
Specs:
Abit KT7A
AMD Athlon 1.1 (100 fsb) - hopefully to begin overclocking again to around 1.26 at 133 fsb)
768 mb ram
ATI All in Wonder 128 Pro
4 hd's (never could get rid of slow, yet working drives)
4x DVD Burner
12X CD Burner
Dvd-Rom
56k modem
10/100 Nic
SB Live!
D-Link USB 2.0 Card

While this is basically old hardware, it still serves my purpose....so I'd like to keep this running a little bit longer before I upgrade. Can't really justify the cost of a new machine since this machine still works for me.
