Newegg has a killer deal on a power supply that is up to your application, the Fortron 350W model for $32. Unfortunately they are out of them, directron has the next best deal:

The fan does tend to be noisy, the reason I suggest getting the supply from directron instead of getting the equally priced Sparkle 350 (the same supply) newegg does have in stock is because directron has a good deal on the best fan to put in the supply if noise is a concern:

By this time, at $44 though, you could have almost bought the real solution: the 120mm equipped 350 Sparkle version (Fortron owns Sparkle and makes the supplies) that xpdirect has for $48:

I have the 420W Enlight myself and couldn't be happier with it.

O yeah, the Enlight is made by the Sirtech Group, www.topower.com. They are decent supplies but the 350 sparkle is stronger and costs less, even in its 120mm fan version.

That's a trick question 'cause there is no 350W TruePower.
