I have a problem...my ASUS P4B533 motherboard has kept dying on me. It won't pass the CPU test. I have had it warrantied already for a 3rd time & I havn't opened it yet since receiving it. So it should be new as of now. I'm wondering which power supply will suit me best? I mean like more specific information on what type of power supply, if possible?

In case you are thinking that you have to match the wattage to the motherboard, that is not the case. You just have to meet the minimum needed, but more wattage then needed is always nice.
