Yes,it's a cheap and potentially dangerous one (It can explode or light your house on fire)

And it can kill your PC as well.

My recommendation is either a Bitfenix Formula Gold,or a Bitfenix Whisper M Gold.

A good power supply is a necessity,for your safety and the safety of your computer.

For your system 500W is enough,you can buy a PSU with more if you want.

you should change the PSU regardles based on these internal shots:

its group regulated, and idk how good of a group regulated PSU it is. 

 

couple of more things to consider. a second memmory stick, a 120gb SSD as boot drive, and decent PSU. cant really recommend a PSU without knowing what is available in your region.
