I know two great PSUs in that range. I have both of these running in one my own projects.

The Termaltake TR2 430 Watt PSU http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817153023

If you want to go with dual 12v rails just in case, then this is also very nice.

XClio 450BL 450 Watt PSU
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817189003

I would go with either of these for a lower price range. Both are $39.00 at the moment.

The PSU Alaron linked to is a very good budget choice...stable and reliable. This one is good too.
