Don't cheap out on these. If the PSU fails, it can damage everything else. Go for name brand. No, I have not heard them before. Go to pcpartpicker PSU page, look for the brands that are shown by default in the filters.

Get the cheapest from corsair, even the cheapest is good enough.

Don't upgrade your PSU if you can't afford to get a good quality one. 

Never cheap out on PSUs.

 

Personally I wouldn't buy an MIPC PSU. Partly because I've never heard of MIPC, and partly because if it's cheap and not a well known brand that usually means it's bad quality.

I would recommend a Corsair CX450 (grey label), it's a pretty decent PSU on a budget.

A more powerful PSU won't make your current pc any better, if it run flawlessly on current PC, don't upgrade until its dead.

Upgrade PSU when you need to power more things like a more power hungry CPU or GPU.

I should have listened to you guys.  I bought a Mi PC power supply from the ebay KDMPOWER ebay store and it was junk.  The unit shipped had lower output specs than the listing. I was in a hurry and decided to to keep it.  3 months latter it died.  I contacted the seller and he said that there was no warranty on the unit.  He stated he had sold tons of the same unit without any problems and I had abused the power supply.  I will only buy from top tier PSU companies with tested reviews with a warranty program.

I bought a Mi PC power supply on Amazon for $90 about 14 months ago now. Surprisingly the power supply has been working perfectly for all 14 months, it came with all the right cables and the cables themselves have a sleek, high quality braided design. The only sketchy thing about it is that it was labeled as 750w in the Amazon listing but is labeled as 775w on the actual unit.
