I would choose that or a similar one but the CX series

CORSAIR Enthusiast Series CMPSU-650TX 650W ATX12V ...

$94 but at least is a reliable one and some people taught me that the PSU is the most important thing: if it blows it can blow all your computer and a cheap one is really more expensive.

And I have bad references for the CX builder series from Corsair.

my 2 cents

EDIT I saw now that you changed it
