I don't think you would want the cheapest possible power supply?

Seasonic 300w? EVGAB1?

W1 is cheaper, its really "meh" but enough for an rx 460.

You have no way to save up $5?

http://www.evga.com/Products/ProductList.aspx?type=8

 

First product on there is a $29.99 EVGA 450B unit. That's your huckleberry.

I enjoy buying junk and sinking more money than it's worth into it to make it less junk.

Yep, and it's manufacturer refurbished by EVGA. The odds of it staying in a not-on-fire state are much higher than they are for the one you got "seller-refurbished" from that shady seller on eBay who forgot to mention that it was returned because it spews flames at full load.

only 5 bucks more for 6 years more warranty. and, rebates, so it ends up $5 cheaper instead.
