There are some components where going for the cheapest option is okay, power supplies are not one of those components. Never, ever, ever cheap out on your power supply.

 

Efficiency ratings mean little, and aren't always true.

Caps matter... They help keep the power being delivered to your parts clean... Meaning, low electrical noise, stable voltages, and better ripple suppression...

 

Check if jonnyguru has written something about this...
