Welcome to the Forums!

Larva has a very well written guide to the higher performing PSUs. The Fortron Source/Sparkle PSUs are very well liked in these forums for their quality. That said, this unit may not have quite the visual stimuli of the one you posted, but is more likely to have stable rails and less expensive as well.

Another vote for the Fortron. They aren't fancy ... just STABLE.

If that 530w unit is as durable as the 300w & 400w Fortron I've tried it should serve you very well.
Don't be discouraged that the Fortron has lower amp specs than the
Aerocool you are looking at as the Fortron are underrated. Not only that,
higher numbers don't equate to increased stability anyway.
And as we all know, stability is Paramount!
A 45amp rail won't do you a bit of good if it isn't stable.



Welcome to the forums, and good luck.
