What motherboard are you going to use?
Short answer, nope. That power supply is not suitable for ANY system with a 9600GSO. There is no such thing as a $20 power supply built with quality components. |

My guess is that GLC is politely saying your PSU is junk. Don't sell yourself short. Protect your hardware and make your system more reliable by buying a quality power supply. Using crap power supplies is a common mistake. They have the potential of causing all sorts of problems.
Review the stickies on this page to find a good PSU. http://www.pcmech.com/forum/a/

This is the least expensive power supply that I would trust with that motherboard, processor, and video card:
