Lol, seriously nowadays cheaper psu's are the same quality as most high price ones. Cheap qutec ones were build with the same materials and factoy as £80 antec psus!
You just made it embarrassingly obvious that you know next to nothing about the topic. Do you know anything about the electronics that go into a power supply?
Hard as it apparently is for you to grasp, there's often a reason why one unit is more expensive than another! Here's a little gem of wisdom for you: better PSUs made of better parts
cost more money to manufacture. Cheap ones
are cheaply made.
Search the Web and read about power supplies for a while, OK? Then you can come back here and explain what you've learned, and you might be able to actually contribute something of value to the thread.
And your 350W statement, wtf are you on you fool.
Did someone forget to take his meds? Please -- find a clue first, talk after.
You can run Athlon 64 systems with more than one hard drive on
300 Watt power supplies.

If you bother to reply, please actually read the above links first. Then you can come back here and explain how you really didn't understand the issues before, but now you do.
The sad thing is, you come off sounding like you know something, and that's misleading to the original poster. So in the future, try to do some research before trying to sound like an authority, okay?
