I would caution you to go for a decent branded supply with lower wattage over a generic PSU with higher power output though.

Certainly half a year ago, a decent branded 350W CPU like the Antec was enough to run a top-notch gaming machine. I guess things will have moved on slightly, but you can't underestimate the difference that quality makes to the adequacy of the power supply.
