I really have no idea what im looking at when shopping for power supplies.

I need one thats under 75 dollars (preferably closer to 50) that can power the following:

AMD Phenom X4 955 Black Edition 3.2 GHz (maybe overclocked to 3.4-3.6)
CORSAIR 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 1600
ASUS M4A78T-E AM3 790GX motherboard
Either a 4870 or 4890 video card
At least 2 case fans
3 hard drives
Possible aftermarket CPU cooler


Thanks for your help
 
I'd prolly look for an antec unit. Might be cutting it close with that budget. You don't necessarily need a super high wattage unit but I certainly wouldn't try to save money when shopping for a PSU. All it takes is for one crappy psu to blow and trash all your equipment with it.

This one has a 10 dollar rebate and a 10 dollar combo discount if i buy it with the case i want



Or Antec BP550 Plus 550W (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817371016)
