I consider Seasonic to be one of the best PSU manufacturers, and this 400w budget unit has been very highly reviewed:

I personally have a platinum rated 400w unit by Sparkle (OEM = FSP), which I snagged for $25 a few years back. Looks like you can't get anything above bronze these days for less than maybe $75.
