I don't think a $30 PSU is going to be any better then your current Aspire even if the Wattage is a bit higher its still not going to have he same amperage as a $100 PSU.

You want a PSU to power your power-hungry PentiumD and your x850xt while having room for SLI? And all for $30?

Not possible

I would never, ever trust a PSU priced at $30 no matter the name attached to it. Keep your aspire until you have more to spend

Just don't buy a $30 PSU. You WILL regret it. Rail's drooping/failing is common in the cheapos.
