Based on the research I did just recently for a motherboard lost to a power supply failure, I like the Corsair CX430 V2 power supply. I also got an Asus M4N68T-M motherboard and put a 2-core AMD Athlon and 8G RAM on it. It seems to be working out well. It is not a "fast, hot" machine. But it is not intended for gaming or movies.
