    wow... um, that's literally more information than we ever need to know. ever. but yeah, i'll just give you the best answer i could:

    with your setup, one of these will do fine:

    http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=17-103-913&depa=0

    if you're planning on heavily upgrading anytime soon, i'd go for one of these:

    I personally like the Fortron ones since they tend to be the most reliable source. Antec is also just as reliable, but they're a bit pricier and i personally believe that you can suck more power out of the fortrons than you would an Antec of the same rating.
