Power supply?

Does anyone know of a chain store that sells good quality computer power supplies. I am looking for something atleast 500watts it is for the gaming system I built for my son. If I can help it I do not want to have to drive all the way to Tucker in the morning. I also do not wait for shipping when one of our computers go down. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

I have checked all the chains websites. None of them seem to have a very high wattage power supply in stock. Oh well it is off to monarchcomputer in tucker I go. Maybe I should not have overbuilt the pc so much but I was having one of my Tim Taylor moments.

It has one of the best stores I know of to buy parts to build your own, but that store is starting to slip alittle. IMO

I probably should have done all of that to a few hewlet packards I owned. Ofcourse I should not I should not down them too much, as much as I had to repair those things it gave me the confidence to start building pcs myself.
