    How much do you want to spend on the PSU and "how long" do you want it to last?

    The 2nd link by Fred for the OCZ is a nice solid unit for the price and has a "very" good reputation, I have the same model but in 700W.

    Tagan is also a very nice brand but PC&C will kick their butt:

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817703015

    Any one of those will probably satisfy your needs.
