I am looking for a new power supply for my Dell XPS 410. I don't really know any good brands or what I should get. Does it even matter if I buy the cheapest or most expensive?

u dont need an expensive one, just a reliable one
dell xps what is its specs and WATTS usage maximum expected?
i think a 400-450 watt psu would do the trick

Make sure to buy a good heat sink. Those things have a tendency to run hot.
