Some Enermax with single +12v lines are pretty cheap. You might need an adapter though. More expensive single +12v lines belong to OCZ Powerstream 520 and some Fortron models. All of these are good quality.

Well I'd say $50.~$80.
The problem is I end up having to give the computer to him.
So the less I spend the better.He is into all the latest games.
On the other hand I know too cheap will end up with me
getting calls to fix this, fix that, I don't need the extra work.
