The specs on that one don't look to bad, I just spent about the same on an Aspire Chameleon from New Egg, I've read a few reviews on it and it seems like it will work for me. My Ultra is on its way south and barely making 11v on the 12v rail

The ATX12V means that it does have the four pin 12v cord for P4 and newer mobos.

i think that a good 480w will out do that one, but i guess its ok...i dont think sparkles are very good, but at least theyre cheap. and yes it does have the 4 pin connector...
