Go to www.JonnyGuru.com and look for Silverstone PSU reviews there.

1) They use a lot of companies: FSP, Seventeem, Etasis, Enhance, etc
2) You do not need a 1200W PSU for that system. A good quality 500W PSU is all that you need.
3) Hit up JonnyGuru.com for for a general idea of those PSUs.

While Silverstone PSUs are pretty good, Corsair and PC Power&Cooling tend to be recommended more often due to their prices or better brand recognition.

I'm not normally one of those "you don't need all that power" type of guys, but I have to admit that if all you have is a single 8800 GTS 512MB, you don't need that much power. I have the same card with watercooling, multiple HDD's, etc. and only use a 500W power supply.

maybe EA500 or Seasonic 500ES is good chioce for me . EA500 is only$59.99 with free shipping right now .

Dang. So which 500W PSU are you using? Just curious.

@OP
the EA500 is a good choice
