The power supply is garbage, and please use a motherboard with an Intel chipset for stability.

I agree. Corsair power supplies are excellent.

Yes they are, but that would take the computer out of the super low budget category. Tiger doesn't carry Antec or FSP, almost all the brands they carry are expensive or garbage.

This is probably the least expensive PSU that will handle that computer: http://www.tigerdirect.ca/applicatio...269&CatId=1078
A motherboard like this should work fine: http://www.tigerdirect.ca/applicatio...679&CatId=1572
